Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the Federal Supreme Court could hear the appeal under the Tax Harmonization Act despite the cantonal basis of the decision.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes; the appeal was admissible because the dispute concerned real estate capital gains tax under the harmonized tax rules and the transitional period had expired.
Extrahierte Begründung
The matter falls under Art. 73 StHG, and the transaction post-dated the harmonization deadline under Art. 72 StHG.
