So what were you doing in court?
It's Jabba's 2nd home these days...
Oh, BTW, I just got the results of my court appearance from last month.
I was appealing my property tax assessment, which was for more than the property
was worth at the 2005-2006 peak. The assessor didn't show, she chose to stand on
the documents that she submitted (but she submitted them too late to be
admissible). I was able to show properties several times the size of mine,
within a mile of mine, with assessments lower than mine. The end result?
The hearing officer recommends that my 2008 and 2009 assessment be set to the
exact amount that I was protesting against, which is 80% more than I paid for
the place in 2007. It's a racket, the state does not want to lose revenue, no
matter how unearned it might be.
