The Supreme Administrative Tribunal dismissed the Fazenda Nacional's appeal regarding a tax violation auto issued against Silva, Abel. The court found that the auto relied solely on a denunciation without independent evidence of the illicit facts. Consequently, the auto was deemed to have only the probative value of a mere participation, requiring further proof of the alleged violations.

SUMÁRIO

A força probatoria de um auto de transgressão baseado numa denuncia não deve atribuir-se maior valor do que aquele que a propria denuncia mereça.

Em tal hipotese o auto passa a simples participação, exigindo-se prova quanto aos factos que contem.
