• Ryan Announces U.S. Supreme Court Rules Favorably for Railroads Challenging State Tax Exemptions As Discriminatory

DALLAS, March 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Ryan, a leading global tax services firm with the largest indirect tax practice in North America, today announced that in CSX Transportation, Inc. v. Alabama Department of Revenue, the U.S. Supreme Court ("Court") held that railroads may challenge state sales and use taxes under the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory Reform Act of 1976 ("4-R Act"). The 4-R Act prohibits certain discriminatory taxes. Three prohibitions deal with taxes on property, and the fourth prohibits "another tax" that discriminates against rail carriers. Citing the 4- R Act, CSX Transportation, Inc. ("CSX") challenged Alabama's imposition of sales and use tax on diesel fuel purchased by rail carriers. CSX said the tax is discriminatory because fuel purchased by interstate m...
