The Supreme Administrative Court ruled that the executed party, not the public authority, bears the court costs when a tax debt is regularized through an extra-judicial agreement. The Fazenda Pública (Public Treasury) sought to shift these expenses to the debtor, Terrovia-Lda, who had accepted multiple letters to settle its obligation with the Social Security center. The court held that since the debt was extinguished by the debtor's voluntary act of regularization, the procedural costs must remain with the party who initiated the execution proceedings.
