The Supreme Administrative Tribunal dismissed the taxpayer's appeal against a fiscal fine imposed for failing to maintain required industrial contribution books. The court found that while the omission of these books constituted an offense, it was legally absorbed by a more serious violation: the failure to submit the mandatory Model 3 declaration. Consequently, the court applied the principle of consummation of offenses, holding that the heavier penalty for the undeclared declaration superseded the lighter penalty for the missing records.
