View this case - free  

Overview: County board of tax assessors erred when, in the course of making a final assessment of a utility's property, it substituted its own assessment ratio and its own fair market value for those calculated by the State, as a final assessment could not include a reappraisal of the fair market value of a taxpayer required to make a return to the State.

Overview: Upon the overwhelming evidence of defendant's guilt, based on the testimony from the victim, which the jury believed despite her impeachment by prior conviction, his convictions were upheld.

Hence, no breach of duty to the customer was shown.
