State to pay 7.5 million to settle senior sales tax overcharges
The State Budget and Control Board approved a 7.5 million settlement for residents 85 and older charged 4 percent sales tax instead of 5. The overcharges span July 1998 to June 2001 and require court approval. Retired Chief Justice Bruce Littlejohn filed suit saying retailers lacked adequate notification. Elizabeth Carpentier noted details remain unresolved and potential private settlement firms may handle refunds.
