The Court
Appeal Process
Once the ARB rules on your
protest, it sends you a written order by certified mail. If you are
dissatisfied with the ARB's findings, you have the right to appeal its decision
to the State District Court in your county.
You should consult with an
attorney to determine if you have a case. Within 45 days of receiving the
written notice, you must file a petition for review with the District
Court.
You also are required to make a partial payment of taxes -
usually the amount of taxes that aren't in dispute - before the delinquency
date. You may ask the court to excuse you from prepaying your taxes. You must
file an oath of "Inability to Pay" the taxes in question and argue that
prepaying the taxes restrains your right to go to court on your protest. The
court will hold a hearing and decide the terms of conditions of you
payments.
At the District Court, you may ask to have your appeal
resolved through arbitration.
