Court's Authority Is
Defined in Opinion
A. J. Moore, district attorney
for Deschutes county, has been
advised by Attorney General Van
Winkle that the -county court has
no authority to make a change in
the valuation placed upon a tax
payer's property by the county as
sessor. Also it is held that the
court cannot revise or review the
rulings made by the board of
equalization relative to valuations
on property for purposes of tax
ation. The opinion holds further that
the court cannot reduce or in
crease the property owner's taxes
as fixed by the equalization board,
nor can it make any change what
ever in the assessment rolls after
they have been examined, correct
ed and approved by the equaliza
tion board.
But it is also held that in a case
where a taxpayer was resisting
payment of a tax and was making
threats to begin suit to enjoin its
collection, the county court, to
prevent litigation and settle the
controversy, could lawfully and in
good faith enter Into a comprom
ise agreement with the taxpayer
and accept a less amount in full
payment and satisfaction of the
larger amount of taxes originally
levied against the property in
