HB 1455 Modifies provisions relating to burden of proof in tax liability cases

Current Bill Summary

- Prepared by Senate Research -


HB 1455 - Currently, the Director of Revenue has the burden of proof in tax liability disputes if the taxpayer meets certain requirements. One such requirement is that if the taxpayer is a partnership, corporation, or trust, the taxpayer's net worth doesn't exceed $7 million and the taxpayer has no more than 500 employees. This act removes this requirement to put the burden of proof on the Director of Revenue. The act also allows the burden of proof to be placed on the Director of Revenue in tax exemption cases.

This act is similar to SB 829 (2014). This act is similar to a provision in HCS/HBs 1179 & 1765 and CCS/HCS/SB 584 (2014).
