Supreme Court rules Ewa and Kahuku liable to railroad company
Supreme Court today affirmed that Ewa Plantation and Kahuku Plantation are liable to the Oahu Railway and Land Company for portions of taxes paid on leases. Justice Perry wrote the opinion, holding that provisions in the leases obligate the plantations to share in tax payments to the Hawaiian Government.
