JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Property classification scheme is not unconstitutional.

- No language in this statute expressly establishes separate classes of tangible property for the purposes of taxation, in violation of Ga. Const. 1945, Art. VII, Sec. I, Para. III (see now Ga. Const. 1983, Art. VII, Sec. I, Para. III), and no language reasonably authorizes the construction that such was the legislative intent. Griggs v. Greene, 230 Ga. 257, 197 S.E.2d 116 (1973).

Subclassification of tangible personal property.

- Ga. L. 1972, p. 174, § 3 and former Code 1933, §§ 92-7001 and 92-7002 do not either expressly or impliedly require or authorize the subclassification of tangible property for tax purposes.
