Spanish term or phrase: soportó las consecuencias del mayor de los reproches
considera que debió ser apreciado por la Inspección de los Tributos, que conoce el contenido y los efectos de la mencionada Sentencia de 21 de diciembre de 2010, que XXXX ya soportó entonces las consecuencias del mayor de los reproches que el ordenamiento jurídico prevé, a través de la condena por la comisión de varios delitos contra la Hacienda Pública. Como consecuencia de ello, admitió de conformidad las consecuencias del referido procedimiento, satisfizo tanto las cuotas que se entendieron defraudadas en los ejercicios a que alcanzaron las actuaciones seguidas en ese momento como las multas que le fueron impuestas y los correspondientes intereses y cumplimentó y presentó las correspondientes declaraciones complementarias del Impuesto sobre Sociedades, abonando los importes adicionales correspondientes a los ejercicios posteriores

This is an extract from a trial, seemingly about tax evasion. Any help would be welcome.

neutral  Robert Forstag: Your suggestion omits the notion of “suffering the consequences” of said penalty that is present in the original. / I disagree.

  -> It's simply overkill it means exactly the same; Spanish is almost invariably more verbose than English in legal and admin text

I like the word "suffers" in lieu of "sustained"for SOPORTAR

Reference information:
I posted this as an entry, until I realized Chris had already posted more or less the same thing.

I'll leave it as a reference in any case, since it may still be of use to the the asker.

...believes the Tax Audit Office, being aware of the contents and effects of the 21 December 2010 judgment, should have accounted for the fact that XXXX had already been punished to the full extent of the law...
