Share
Petition for certiorari denied on February 24, 2020
Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
19-755 Utah N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2019

Issue: Whether Utah’s tax code—which extends a credit for income taxes paid to other states but does not extend a similar credit for income taxes paid to foreign countries or make other adjustments for foreign income, resulting in a double taxation of income that state residents earn from foreign commerce—discriminates against foreign commerce in violation of the dormant commerce clause.
