Court Rules Against Greek Failure to Pay Interest on Overpaid Tax
The European Court of Human Rights rules that refusal by tax authorities to pay interest when refunding overpaid taxes can violate property rights guaranteed by the European Convention on Human Rights. In a unanimous decision, an international panel of seven judges says the Greek government violated the rights of a gasoline firm under Article 1, Protocol 1, of the convention, which guarantees "peaceful enjoyment" of possessions. |
