Question juridique clé
Whether the Federal Supreme Court could hear the tax office's administrative appeal and whether the request to impose tariff A was admissible.
Solution extraite
The appeal was admissible, but the request for direct application of tariff A was inadmissible because the court could only annul and remit under Art. 73 StHG.
Motifs extraits
The matter concerned federal tax-harmonization law; the cantonal decision was final, and the tax office had standing. However, the statutory remedy allowed only annulment and remittal, not a replacement tax assessment by the Federal Supreme Court.
