Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal was admissible insofar as it also sought annulment of the cantonal first-instance decision
Solution extraite
The appeal was admissible only against the cantonal appellate judgment; there was no admissibility for a direct request to annul the lower cantonal decision.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 73(3) StHG, the Federal Court may, if it allows the appeal, annul the challenged decision and remit the matter. A direct annulment of the lower instance is therefore not a permissible request.
