French term or phrase: contentieux fiscal
En dépit des efforts déployés par l'administration fiscale pour le règlement des litiges au niveau notamment des commissions de recours créées à plusieurs niveaux, le contentieux fiscal augmente chaque année. Plus les contribuables se multiplient, plus les taxations s’élargissent et plus le contentieux se développent.

Explanation:
I'd have said 'dispute'. Reason: in the text at hand, you have plenty of opportunities to translate 'litiges' by 'litigation'. 'Contentieux' covers disputes that *could* go to court but may not.
