Will Test Gross Revenue Tax Law In Oklahoma Coal Districts
Guthrie Aug 10 State Auditor Trapp has withdrawn tax warrants placed with sheriffs in Pittsburg Latimer and other coal counties pending a Pittsburg county superior court ruling on the legality of the gross revenue tax on coal. An injunction restrains further collection while plaintiffs coal companies challenge the law as unconstitutional and discriminatory. The case centers on tax purposes, land control, and the fairness of levying 0.5 percent on gas production and 2 percent on coal. The matter involves state officials and coal operators awaiting court action and a notice inviting attendance at events in Seattle Ketchum.
