Jones v. City of Dallas

This is an appeal from the trial court’s interlocutory order refusing to certify a class action under Tex.R.Civ.P. 42. Such an appeal is authorized by the 1979 amendment to Tex.Rev.Civ.Stat.Ann. art. 2250 (Vernon Supp. 1980). The suit seeks a permanent injunction restraining the City of Dallas “from certifying, adopting or enforcing” the 1980 ad valorem tax assessments on residential property. The suit also seeks to restrain the City from “accepting any tax roll or levying taxes thereon until such roll be demonstrated to contain property of all kinds assessed at 100% true fair market value.” "
