Tax Ferret Decision Addresses Retroactive Tax Law
The Iowa Supreme Court holds that section 1374 of the 1897 code may authorize collecting taxes for five years back, deeming it not unconstitutional. It did not rule on other constitutional objections raised in Jasper county or anticipated in Pocahontas and Palo Alto appeals, and judges differ on whether sections 1374 and chapter 50 are to be read together.
