Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the direct federal administrative court appeal was admissible despite the cantonal procedural rule on further appeal.
Decisione estratta
Yes. For the tax period 1993/94, the cantonal decision was final under cantonal law, so a direct appeal to the Federal Supreme Court was admissible.
Motivazione estratta
The cantonal appeal route under the later cantonal tax act applies only to assessments after the DBG entered into force on 1 January 1995; this case concerned 1993/94.
