Boundaries between tax savings and fraud punishable: fraud action in the tax law.

Authors: Bacigalupo, Silvina;

Boundaries between tax savings and fraud punishable: fraud action in the tax law.

Abstract

Resumen. En toda Europa y particularmente en España la mejor doctrina ha observado la creciente y preocupante tendencia jurisprudencial a confundir los casos de fraude de ley tributarios con la simulación explicitada en el tipo penal objetivo del delito fiscal, y todo evidenciando una clara tendencia a privilegiar los intereses financieros de la hacienda pública por sobre los principios de un derecho penal tributario de inspiración democrática. Afortunadamente, la sentencia del Tribunal Constitucional 120/2005, de 10 de mayo, supo restablecer la racionalidad dogmática perdida por medio del citado pronunciamiento, el que aparece con gran trascendencia tanto doctrinal como práctica. En el presente artículo, la autora analiza los extremos técnicos de dicho fallo y sus implicaciones dogmáticas a fin de esclarecer definitivamente si ciertos comportamientos calificables como fraude de ley tributarios se subsumen bajo el tipo penal del delito fiscal o si, por el contrario, dicha subsunción lesiona el principio de legalidad por suponer una analogía in malam partem.

Abstract. Throughout Europe and in particular in Spain, scholars have noticed growing and disturbing case-law which confuses cases of tax fraud with the simulation provided for in the objective description of the tax crimes, showing a clear trend to benefit the financial interests of the Public Treasury over the principles of modern Criminal Law, inspired by the principle of democracy. Fortunately, the decision of the Spanish Constitutional Tribunal n.o 120/2005 of May 10, which had a great impact both among scholars and in daily practice, reestablished the apparently lost dogmatic rationality. In the present article, the author analyzes the technical aspects of the decision, as well as its dogmatic implications, in order to clarify whether certain behaviors qualified as tax fraud fall within the scope of the description of the tax crime or, on the contrary, such analogy implies a violation of the principle of legality, as may be qualified as an analogy in malam partem.
