State v. Bd. of Public Instruction, Levy Cty.

Supreme Court of Florida

Decided May 24, 1940PublishedCited by 3 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtWhitfield, J.

The State avers that the bonds issued in 1925 by the Board of Public Instruction are invalid because the statute authorizing the bonds to be issued violates Section 8, Article XII, of the Florida Constitution, and cites in support of its contention Barrow v.

Board of Public Instruction, Dade County, 126 Fla. 142, 170 So. 602, in which latter case original bonds had been issued for school purposes and were to be refunded. See also State Board v. County Board…
