The Supreme Administrative Court unanimously upheld the jurisdiction of First Instance Tax Courts over Lisbon and Porto for processing fiscal executions initiated before July 1, 1991. The Recurrent, representing the Public Treasury, argued that Finance Departments lacked authority for these specific proceedings under the transitional provisions of the new Tax Procedure Code. The court determined that the cited articles of the 1991 Decree-Law did not suffer from organic or material unconstitutionality, thereby confirming the Tax Courts' exclusive competence for this transitional period.

SUMÁRIO

Os ns. 1 e 2 do art. 9 do Dec. - Lei 154/91 de 23/4 não padecem de inconstitucionalidade orgânica ou material, sendo os T.T. de 1 Instância de Lisboa e Porto - e não as Repartições de Finanças - as competentes para o processamento das execuções ali instauradas até 1/7/91, data de entrada em vigor do Código do Processo Tributário.
