Supreme Court of Louisiana July 1, 1880, No. 6708 (Police Jury v. Labarre)

Manning, C. J.

The police jury of Jefferson parish could not levy a larger tax than four mills on the dollar for the general purposes of parochial government in the year in which the defendant was assessed in this suit, because that was the rate of the State tax for that year. Lafitte v. Morgan, 29 La. Ann. 1.
