Montana Attorney General Kelly Wins Two Major Court Victories
In two recent cases Montana secured a ruling in its favor. The state taxed Northern Pacific Railway reservations and land sold to settlers, boosting 1918 tax rolls by about 77 thousand dollars. The U S Supreme Court upheld Montana’s ability to tax life insurance business within the state, a decision with wide, lasting impact for state revenues.
