Carling v. Mayor of Hoboken
Supreme Court of New Jersey
Carling v. Mayor of Hoboken, 64 N.J.L. 223 (N.J. 1899)
35 Vroom 223; 44 A. 950; 1899 N.J. Sup. Ct. LEXIS 3
Carling v. Mayor of Hoboken
Opinion of the Court
The tax ordinance was approved June 29th, 1899, and under it taxes were assessed and confirmed October 5th, 1899. The rule for certiorari was not applied for until October 7th, 1899. We think it was then too late to review the ordinance for the purpose of setting aside any of its provisions, and that, if illegal taxes have been levied under it, individual taxpayers must be left to seek their own personal remedies.
The rule to show cause is discharged, with costs.
