The Supreme Administrative Court unanimously upheld the jurisdiction of First Instance Tax Courts to handle coercive collection of debts arising from the Emergency Agricultural Credit. The Recurrent argued against this competence, while the Public Treasury maintained the specific statutory authority of these tribunals for such debts. The court ruled that the specialized nature of the debt mandates First Instance Tax Courts, establishing their exclusive competence for this specific collection matter.
