Inolex Corp. v. Rosewell

This action was brought by plaintiff, Inolex Corporation, against defendants, the County of Cook, its tax officials, and Northwestern University, to enjoin the tax officials from collecting certain real estate taxes billed in 1974. These taxes consisted of a then-current tax for 1973 and back taxes for 1970,1971 and 1972. The trial court entered summary judgment for plaintiff and against defendants, declared the back taxes unauthorized by law, and permanently enjoined the county defendants from attempting to collect that particular tax. The county defendants appeal from this order.
