Paul J. Hartman And The Literature Of State And Local Taxation-An Appreciation, William R. Andersen
Paul J. Hartman And The Literature Of State And Local Taxation-An Appreciation, William R. Andersen
Vanderbilt Law Review
The editors of this symposium have asked me for a brief account of the contributions of Professor Hartman's published writings in the field of state and local taxation. In fairness, those contributions cannot be accounted in brief; what follows is more of a bibliography, and an appreciation...
As a final example of Hartman's concern for institutional relationships in tax policy, mention should be made of the 1959 piece on municipal income taxation.' Here, Hartman has changed lenses on his microscope and examines not the relationship between the nation and the states but that between the states and the cities. His …
Interstate Corporate Income Taxation-Recent Revolutions And A Modern Response, Eugene F. Corrigan
Interstate Corporate Income Taxation-Recent Revolutions And A Modern Response, Eugene F. Corrigan
Vanderbilt Law Review
In recent years significant technical advances have enabled large corporations to sell into states from great distances and with a minimum of contact in those states. Nevertheless, the states and their political subdivisions are confronted with the claims of corporations that jurisdictional barriers to corporate income taxes should be raised, that improved enforcement techniques should be prohibited, and that certain classes of income should be immunized completely from state taxation. These revolutionary technical advances have created both major tax administration problems and tax administration opportunities for the states. Some of the latter, however, remain unexploited. This article examines the ramifications …
Out-Of-State Collection Of State And Local Taxes, Robert A. Leflar
Out-Of-State Collection Of State And Local Taxes, Robert A. Leflar
Vanderbilt Law Review
Validly due and payable state and local taxes often go unpaid because the absent tax debtor chooses not to pay voluntarily and has no assets from which the tax debt can be collected in the taxing state. He often has assets elsewhere, but they may be difficult for the tax creditor to discover and to reach.
Only a few years ago out-of-state assets could not be reached at all, nor could the tax debtor himself be reached except within the taxing state, in its own courts, and by its own legal processes. Formerly, no state would use its law or …
State Taxation Of Interstate Business And The Supreme Court, 1974 Term: Standard Pressed Steel And Colonial Pipeline, Walter Hellerstein
State Taxation Of Interstate Business And The Supreme Court, 1974 Term: Standard Pressed Steel And Colonial Pipeline, Walter Hellerstein
Scholarly Works
It was an item of more than routine interest when the Supreme Court, late in the 1973 term, noted probable jurisdiction in two cases raising issues of central importance with respect to state tax power over interstate business. Standard Pressed Steel Co. v. Department of Revenue presented critical questions concerning due process and commerce clause limitations on a state's power to impose an unapportioned gross receipts tax on an interstate vendor; Colonial Pipeline Co. v. Traigle posed the recurring and unresolved question of the scope and vitality of the doctrine that the “privilege” of doing interstate business is immune from …
Special Purpose Taxation Districts: Coming Or Going?, John E. Juergensmeyer
Special Purpose Taxation Districts: Coming Or Going?, John E. Juergensmeyer
University of Richmond Law Review
Special purpose taxing districts, as an instrument of local government, have been widely criticized and commonly blamed for many of the problems of "urban sprawl." However, despite repeated and extensive criticism, and continual attempts to limit and restrict them, special purpose districts have expanded in number and function.
Michelin Tire Corp. V. Wages: Enhanced State Power To Tax Imports, Walter Hellerstein
Michelin Tire Corp. V. Wages: Enhanced State Power To Tax Imports, Walter Hellerstein
Scholarly Works
In Michelin Tire Corp. v. Wages, the Supreme Court abandoned a century of precedent in holding that the Import-Export Clause does not bar a state from imposing a nondiscriminatory ad valorem property tax on imported goods. The provision forbidding the states from laying "any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports" was never intended to prohibit such a levy, the Court now tells us, and the case first suggesting that it did, Low v. Austin, was "wrong decided." Over a mild protest of Mr. Justice White, the Court thus obviated any examination of the principal issue the parties …
