INCOME TAX CASES.
AN IMPORTANT DECISION
Electric Telegraph—Press Association Wellington, This Day.
Mr Justice Chapman to-day decided the special appeal case Mudgway Estate and Land Company v. the Commissioner of Taxes in favour of the Commissioner. Appellants had paid under protest sums of £2ll 6s and £132 ss, the grounds of the objections being that sums taxed as profits were not profits. The case turned on the point that though the amount was paid under protest no action was taken by appellants to have their objections heard before a Magistrate. The point was also raised by the Commissioner that in actions of this kind proceedings have to bo taken against the King and not the Commissioner. On both points the Judge held in favour of defendant.
