The Supreme Administrative Court unanimously dismissed the appeal filed by the Public Treasury against a decision to extinguish the instance. The Public Treasury argued that the lower court erred in declaring the case impossible to continue, while the opposing party maintained that the procedural conditions for the lawsuit had vanished. The court ruled that when the subject matter of the dispute becomes objectively impossible to adjudicate, the instance must be extinguished without prejudice to future action if conditions change.
