Nebraska Supreme Court voided the revision of the intangible tax law by the last legislature finding it unconstitutional and broader than its title. The ruling blocks the law altering rates on stocks banks and other securities and enjoins enforcement. Judge Bayard Paine wrote the opinion with concurring justices Eberly and Good. County officials face adjustments to reestablish old tax bases, with W H Smith noting assessments already prepared for the contingency.
