The Supreme Court declared the tax chamber's administrative decision void for lacking legal grounds to adjudicate a civil restitution claim. The taxpayer voluntarily paid tax debts assumed by a privatized company, but the tax authority refused the refund, arguing it was a tax matter. The court ruled that since no tax legal relationship existed between the parties, the dispute must be resolved as a civil matter under the Civil Code, rendering the administrative decision inadmissible.
