The High Specialized Court of Ukraine is a judicial body that heads the system of courts of administrative jurisdiction in Ukraine. It reviews administrative disputes in cassation, that is, in the third instance. Since all tax disputes are considered in the manner of administrative proceedings, appeals on them will be considered by this judicial body.
The Code of Administrative Proceedings, specifically Article 211, states: “Each party to a tax administrative dispute has the right to appeal the decision of the first instance court in cassation, after its review in the appellate order”. However, the law establishes certain restrictions regarding the subject of cassation appeal.
In particular, the following court decisions can be appealed in cassation:
- Decisions to leave the statement of claim (appellate complaint) without movement
- Decisions to return the statement of claim (appellate complaint)
- Decisions to refuse to initiate proceedings in an administrative case (appellate proceedings)
- Decisions to leave the statement of claim (statement of appellate appeal, appellate complaint) without consideration
- Decisions to suspend proceedings in the case (appellate proceedings)
- Decisions to terminate proceedings in the case (appellate proceedings)
Grounds for opening cassation proceedings in a tax dispute case may include errors by judges of the first and second instances.
Specifically:
- Application of a rule that should not have been applied in the relevant situation
- Non-application of a rule that should have been applied in this situation
- Incorrect interpretation of the applied rule
Despite the fact that the cassation procedure in a tax dispute case has its peculiarities compared to the consideration of the case in previous instances, all these proceedings have at least one unifying principle – the rule that the parties have the right to participate in the judicial process both personally and indirectly through their representative.
