JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Injunction against unlawful or arbitrary valuations.

- When an increase in the valuations of realty returned by taxpayers is not for the purpose of equalizing such valuations, but is an unlawful and arbitrary attempt to provide additional revenue for educational purposes, a court may grant an interlocutory injunction against the making up, compiling, or listing of any report or digest incorporating or including therein any increased assessment or changes or alterations in the returns, and may enjoin the tax receiver from transmitting to the department or the comptroller general (now commissioner) or the tax collector of the county, or any tax authorities of the county or state, any report, list, or other compilation or digest including or incorporating therein any increase or change or alteration in the return filed with the tax receiver by any taxpayer thereof.
