Milewski v. Town of Dover – Supreme Court of Wisconsin holds that statutory scheme governing process for challenging tax assessor’s property valuation, which scheme conditioned property owners’ right to contest tax assessor’s valuation of their real property as excessive on their granting of assessor’s request to view property, was unconstitutional as applied to property owners who exercised their Fourth Amendment right to deny assessor’s request to inspect home’s interior, and who were thereafter denied their Fourteenth Amendment due process right to contest their increased tax burden.
And finally, Scam Alert: Golf Pro Edition is brought to us this week by Craw v. City of Lincoln, an employment dispute in which the court repeatedly referred to the plaintiff’s occupation as a “purported” golf pro at a city course.
