The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the Fazenda Nacional's request for execution costs against a cooperative that settled its social security debt extrajudicially. The court found that the debtor's failure to pay initially triggered the execution, but the subsequent agreement rendered the lawsuit's purpose obsolete. Consequently, the court ruled that the debtor, who caused the execution, bears the costs despite the extrajudicial settlement.
