Spokane Eastern Tr. Co. v. Spokane County

The Supreme Court of Washington
May 17, 1933
22 P.2d 656 (Wash. 1933)

Opinion

No. 24260. Department One.

May 17, 1933.

Appeal from a judgment of the superior court for Spokane county, Witt, J., entered April 29, 1932, in favor of the plaintiff, in an action for equitable relief, tried to the court. Affirmed.

Chas. W. Greenough and A.O. Colburn, for appellant.

Graves, Kizer Graves, for respondent.


This case involves the same issues of law and the same character of facts involving the assessment as in Bank of Fairfield v. Spokane County, ante p. 145, 22 P.2d 646.

In this case, as in those cases, appellant also contends that the trial court was without jurisdiction to make any order enjoining appellant from proceeding with the reassessment for the tax of 1928 because of the enactment of chapter 62, Laws of 1931, p. 201 (Rem. Rev. Stat., § 11315 et seq.).

This suit was begun and an injunction issued against the collection of the disputed tax in March, 1929, about two years before the effective date of the 1931 act. The claim of appellant that it cannot be maintained because of certain provisions of the act of 1931 has been determined adversely in the Bank of Fairfield case, supra.

All other questions discussed by both counsel have been fully determined in that case, as well as in a similar case, Home State Bank of Blaine v. Whatcom County, 169 Wn. 486, 14 P.2d 21, reaffirmed En Banc in 171 Wn. 702, 18 P.2d 1119. See, also, Pullman State Bank v. Whitman County, 172 Wn. 701, 20 P.2d 1119.

Further discussion would be useless, and the judgment must stand affirmed.

BEALS, C.J., MITCHELL, and MILLARD, JJ., concur.
