Case Notes

Levy of Tax.

No levy of school taxes was shown where the records of the county court showed that the court ascertained that the school district voted a tax of five mills for school purposes, but did not show that the court proceeded to levy the tax. Alexander v. Capps, 100 Ark. 488, 140 S.W. 722 (1911) (decision under prior law).

State Tax Not Shown.

In a dispute over a twenty-five mill uniform rate of tax (URT), a trial court erred by finding that the URT revenues were state-tax revenues. School taxes were a breed of their own that were neither state or local; the URT was not converted into a state tax solely because the revenues were remitted to the Arkansas State Treasurer and then back to the school districts. Kimbrell v. McCleskey, 2012 Ark. 443, 424 S.W.3d 844 (2012).
