Governmental, Constitutional and Statutory Issues - School District
We represented a major urban school district in defense of claims by a putative class of taxpayers seeking to recover in excess of $100 million in payments on a non-homestead property tax that had expired. The circuit court dismissed the claims as beyond its jurisdiction and the Court of Appeals affirmed. The Michigan Tax Tribunal then dismissed the claims as untimely, but the Court of Appeals reversed. The Michigan Supreme Court granted our application for leave to appeal and reversed, dismissing the claims.
