Hepburn v School Directors of Carlisle Bank Stock Tax Ruling
The Supreme Court upholds Pennsylvania authority to value national bank shares for taxation above par value and assesses them for municipal or school taxes. The opinion by Chief Justice Waite allows official appraisals linking share value to actual moneyed capital, with appeals to the Auditor General to correct errors. The decision rejects a par value only constraint and affirms the taxability of bank shares within the borough of Carlisle.
