Insurance Deposits Not Taxable Under Maryland Law
The Maryland State Tax Commission struck out an assessment on a $10,000 deposit held by an insurance company for Mrs. Doris F. Ridenour of Washington County after her husband’s 1932 death. Officials cited lack of state law taxing insurer deposits, noting possible legislative action and a study by governor-elect O’Conor’s committee. The case reflects broader questions of taxation on life insurance funds held by companies.
