Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the direct federal tax claims for 1993/1994 were time-barred
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The ordinary limitation period had been interrupted by procedural acts, and no absolute limitation applied under the old law.
Extrahierte Begründung
Acts during the objection and appeal proceedings interrupted the five-year period under Art. 128 BdBSt. The BdBSt contained no absolute limitation period; the later administrative and judicial acts kept the claim alive.
