Questão jurídica principal
Whether the company could challenge the lower court's joint judgment covering cantonal taxes and direct federal tax in one appeal
Decisão extraída
The joint appeal was admissible and the two proceedings were joined because the same facts and legal questions were involved.
Fundamentação extraída
When the federal and harmonized cantonal rules are the same, a single lower-court judgment is permissible and the Federal Court may join the parallel appeals.
