Supreme Court dismissed tax fraud charge where unreported income was already subject to administrative tax adjustment.
Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court dismissed the criminal charge of serious tax fraud against the defendant. The prosecution alleged that the defendant committed fraud by failing to report income from a partnership, which had previously triggered an administrative tax adjustment. The court ruled that since the tax authority had already adjusted the tax liability administratively, the specific criminal element of evading payment through deception was not established, rendering the criminal prosecution inadmissible.

Generato dall'IAVerolaki 1994/1185; Veropetola 1999/1020: Where the tax authority has already adjusted the tax liability administratively for unreported income, a subsequent criminal prosecution for tax fraud based on the same facts is inadmissible because the essential element of evading payment through deception is not present.

A:lle oli määrätty henkilökohtaisessa verotuksessa veronkorotusta sillä perusteella, että hän oli jättänyt ilmoittamatta eräästä osuuskunnasta saamaansa tuloa. Sittemmin A:ta syytettiin muun ohella saman menettelyn perusteella törkeästä veropetoksesta. Kysymys siitä, voitiinko syyte tältä osin tutkia.
