Question referred

Must Articles 168(c) and 178(c) and (d) and Articles 179, 180, 181 and 182 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (1) of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax and the principles of tax neutrality, proportionality and effectiveness be interpreted as meaning that the legislation and practice of a Member State are compatible with them where, according to that legislation and practice, the deduction of the input VAT in respect of intra-Community acquisitions of goods is refused and definitively excluded (no corrected return can be filed and the application for a special tax refund procedure is refused) on the ground that the taxable person, for administrative reasons, did not exercise its right to the deduction during the same tax period as that for which the tax due was calculated, although it did do so within the relevant time limit, in circumstances in which, in previous inspections, the tax authority of the Member State had not raised any objection to such exercise of the right?

Action brought on 30 July 2024 – Škor v Commission


(Case T-394/24)

(C/2024/6441)
Language of the case: Slovak

Parties


Applicant: Ján Škor (Nesluša, Slovakia) (represented by: L. Vojčík, lawyer)

Defendant: European Commission

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


order the defendant, representing the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF), to pay the applicant the sum of EUR 7 000 000 by way of compensation for non-material damage;










—


order the defendant to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on three pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging that during the investigation, OLAF incorrectly assessed the evidence, with the result that it wrongly decided to close the investigation into the project ‘Drinking water supply and connection to the sewage system in Horné Kysuce’ (Project No CCI 2004 SK 16 C PE 001), without opposing the adoption of the measure.










2.


Second plea in law, alleging the manifest failure to state reasons for the notice of closure of the enquiry and the uncontrollable nature of that notice.










3.


Third plea in law, alleging inaction by OLAF after the second complaint was lodged on 8 June 2018 and failure to open a new investigation.
