Kansas Court Gets Sports Authority Tax Case
The Kansas Supreme Court took under advisement a case over a 1972 law creating a Johnson County Sports Authority. A clerical error left out the word not, altering the definition of a transient guest and triggering a hotel tax used to fund a sports complex bonds program. The authority seeks an early ruling before bond action, while the attorney general argues the filing cannot fix the error.
