Union League Club v. Johnson

EDMONDS, J. The State Treasurer complains that the superior court in rendering a judgment for the amount of taxes paid by the respondent under protest, improperly construed the Retail Sales Tax Act (Stats. 1933, p. 2599; Deerings Gen. Laws, Act 8493). The taxpayer was allowed to recover upon the theory that this act, as in effect at the time the assessment was made, does not include a bona fide social club.
