mso-fareast-language:JA">Despite the district court’s crystal clear conclusion
that the County must return illegally collected taxes to Incline Village and
Crystal Bay property owners, the Washoe County DA is proposing to continue the
fight. The DA is seeking permission from
our County Commissioners to appeal Judge
Drakulich’s ruling to the Nevada Supreme Court.
The item is on the agenda for the upcoming Tuesday November 12 Commission
meeting. Unbelievably they are even
proposing to pursue an appeal using outside counsel, even further increasing the
cost to all Washoe County taxpayers. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:21.0pt;font-family:Arial;

none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:21.0pt;font-family:Arial;
mso-fareast-language:JA">The district court’s decision is the product of careful
research and analysis by the court and would end the injustice to taxpayers and
15 years of cost heaped upon taxpayers here and throughout the County. The County admitted the unconstitutional
assessments and the Judge rejected the County's technical arguments to avoid
responsibility for its own wrongdoing. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:

mso-fareast-language:JA">The court’s order is written in language taken
directly from Supreme Court decisions based on fundamental principles
established in this and closely related cases. We believe the Supreme Court will never make
unconstitutional government actions legal. The Supreme Court will not reverse
itself on these settled precedents so asking them for that through an appeal is
a wasteful and futile exercise that only results in delaying justice to Incline
Village/Crystal Bay homeowners and increasing the cost to all County
taxpayers. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:

mso-fareast-language:JA">Until this matter is resolved, costs to County
taxpayers will continue to pile up in excess of $5,000 daily - THAT’S OVER $5,000
EVERY SINGLE DAY, and another appeal will cost those same taxpayers more than an
additional $5 million. It’s time to be constructive and seek a reasonable
and prompt end to everyone's pain.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:
