A Nebraska lawmaker wants to extend the timeframe in which residents can file a lawsuit to argue that a tax is unconstitutional
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - A Nebraska lawmaker wants to extend the timeframe in which residents can file a lawsuit to argue that a tax is unconstitutional.
Sen. Bill Kintner of Papillion will present the measure Wednesday to the Legislature's Revenue Committee.
Current law allows residents to file a constitutional challenge against a tax in the same year in which the tax was levied. Kintner's measure would impose a 12-month window to file a lawsuit, starting when the tax was levied.

The bill is LB558
