FACTS
Defendant filed a motion to dismiss the action for declaratory relief filed by
petitioner to obtain a ruling on w/n sales of dental gold or dental gold alloys and
other metals used for dental purposes are within the purview of Art 184 of the
NIRC
Defendant contends that:
(1) Plaintiff has no cause of action for declaratory judgment, and
(2) Even assuming the existence of a cause of action, relief by declaratory
judgment is not proper because it will not terminate the controversy.
Court sustained the motion, saying that actions for declaratory relief do not
apply to cases where a taxpayer questions his liability for the payment of any
tax collectible under any law administered by the BIR.
DECISION
Order appealed from is affirmed.
