Supreme Court, Federal and State Taxation, and the Constitution, Second Edition

"[This book] examines the intersection of the U.S. Constitution and federal and state taxation going back to the earliest years of the nation. Citing only Supreme Court cases, author Jack Cummings organizes and categorizes the opinions for maximum accessibility by practitioners and others involved in law practice, law making, and legal scholarship. The book includes, for example, a detailed analysis of the 25 Supreme Court cases that ruled a federal tax provision was unconstitutional. Another chapter discusses the 121 decisions related to the intergovernmental immunity doctrine. And another chapter explores the Court's 2012 decision in National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius. Another chapter makes clear the confusing intersection of fees, taxes, and regulatory charges"--Publisher's description.
