Supreme Court rules Alabama may justify railroad fuel tax

2015-03-05 21:49:22| Railroads - Topix.net

CSX Transporation, Inc. [opinion, PDF] that Alabama should be able to justify its decision to assess on railroads a fuel tax that it does not assess on motor carriers. The 7-2 ruling against CSX Transportation Inc. reversed the decision [opinion, PDF] of the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit [official website], remanding the case to consider "whether Alabama's fuel-excise tax is the rough equivalent of Alabama's sales tax as applied to diesel fuel," and would thus justify the motor carrier tax exemption.
