Description

Appellant is a Delaware corporation owning and operating an interstate railroad system, a portion of which is located in the appellee counties of the state. In June 1959 the State Tax Commission assessed the taxable property of appellant in the state at $65,397,243.50. Pursuant to the applicable statutes appellant appeared before the State Tax Commission acting in its capacity as the State Board of Equalization and objected to the assessment. It offered to show that the full cash value of its property in Arizona was $73,000,000 and that its property was assessed at not less than 89 per cent of full cash value but that other property subject to assessment by the respective county assessors was assessed at no more than 20 per cent of full cash value on the average. The Board was requested to equalize the assessment by either lowering it to the average of other properties or by raising other assessments to full cash value. Appellant alleged that the Board wilfully, intentionally and fraudulently rejected its request for equalization refusing to take any action. Thereafter the taxes assessed were paid to the respective county treasurers accompanied by written protests. In January, 1960, appellant commenced suit seeking to recover a portion of the taxes paid and to enjoin defendants from making similar discriminatory assessments in the future.
