Suit Over Tax on Bank Stock in Idaho Case
A Wallace Bank & Trust Co suit against Shoshone County seeks 6740.50 in taxes paid on bank stock held by stockholders. The Idaho court rules taxes are assessed on shares, not the bank’s capital, and non taxable Liberty bonds held by the bank do not reduce the stock’s value for assessment. The decision clarifies that stockholders’ claims are assignee driven and the bank acts as the taxing agent for shares.
