Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the tax official Y. had to recuse himself from the reassessment procedure.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No recusal was required; the circumstances did not objectively create an appearance of bias or prejudice.
Extrahierte Begründung
A prior allegedly wrong legal view, procedural errors, or the continuation of the procedure before the formal closure of a recusal complaint against another official did not amount to a particularly serious error or indicate partiality. Complaints about calculations had to be raised in the proper remedies against the tax assessment.
