Napa County Getting Sued by Telecommunication Companies Over Property Taxes

Five telecommunication companies are suing Napa County over property taxes they say were collected in violation of the California Constitution. The companies — Pacific Bell, AT&T, Sprint Spectrum, T-Mobile and CenturyLink — seek combined tax refunds of more than $1.1 million. The suit, in which the telecommunication companies are represented by law firms in Sacramento and San Francisco, also seeks attorneys fees, litigation costs and a court judgment stating the tax rates the county applied to the companies’ property is unconstitutional.
