Tax litigation typically begins when a taxpayer disputes a decision or assessment made by the revenue authorities. This may involve disagreements over tax liability, tax assessments, penalties, interest, or tax refunds. The dispute may arise during a tax audit or as a result of differing interpretations of tax laws and regulations.
Before filing a case in court, taxpayers are usually required to engage in administrative procedures. This involves formally objecting to the revenue authorities’ decision and seeking an internal review. This step is crucial, as it provides an opportunity for resolution without resorting to litigation.
If the administrative review does not lead to a satisfactory resolution, the taxpayer can proceed to file a case in the Tax Appeals Tribunal and thereafter on appeal to the High Court
Once a case is filed, both parties prepare their arguments and evidence. Tarra tax lawyers play a crucial role in gathering relevant documents, witness statements, and expert opinions. The taxpayer must demonstrate that the tax authorities’ assessment or decision is excessive, incorrect or unjustified.
Tax litigation cases may involve hearings, submissions, and examinations under oath. The taxpayer and the tax authorities present their arguments before the Tax Appeals Tribunal or High Court. The process can be protracted and may involve several appearances and submissions
If either party is dissatisfied with the decision of the Tax Appeals Tribunal, they can further appeal to the High Court and, in some cases, the Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court of Kenya. The appeals process can extend the duration of the litigation significantly
At any stage of the litigation, the parties may explore the possibility of a settlement through negotiation or alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation. Settlements can be a practical way to resolve disputes while avoiding the costs and uncertainties of prolonged litigation
Ultimately, the tribunal or court issues a judgement. If the judgement favours the taxpayer, it may result in a reduction in tax liability, the removal of penalties, or the refund of overpaid taxes. Conversely, if the judgement favours the tax authorities, the taxpayer may be required to pay the assessed taxes, penalties, and interest.
After a judgement is issued, the taxpayer is obligated to comply with the court’s decision. This may involve making payments, adjusting tax returns, or taking other necessary actions.
