Questão jurídica principal
Whether the missed objection deadline against the tax assessment should be restored due to illness and other serious reasons.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The medical certificates and reports showed that both spouses were significantly impeded by serious health and psychological problems, and the objection was filed within 30 days after the impediment ceased.
Fundamentação extraída
Under § 137 Abs. 2 StG and Art. 133 Abs. 3 DBG, illness can justify restoration without requiring complete incapacity. The court found the evidentiary threshold met by the submitted medical documents and held that the authority should not have refused to enter into the objection.
