EU court to rule on â¬13bn Apple case on taxes in Ireland
The EUâs top court will this morning deliver its keenly-awaited ruling on Appleâs tax affairs in the Republic.
A key adviser to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) recommended last November that it set aside a 2020 EU general court ruling that the European Commission had failed to stand up a claim the iPhone maker owed the State more than â¬13 billion in back taxes, plus interest.
In his opinion in November, advocate general Giovanni Pitruzzella said the general court, the lower court, committed a series of errors of law and failed to assess âcertain methodological errorsâ relating to Appleâs Irish tax liabilities.
