Plaintiff, TC-MD 170131G
v.
DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE,
State of Oregon,
FINAL DECISION1
Defendant.
This matter came before the court on Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss (motion), filed on
April 28, 2017. Plaintiff filed his Complaint on April 7, 2017, requesting that Defendant abate
its assessment of Lane County Mass Transit District payroll tax because neither Plaintiff nor his
employees worked in that transit district the period ending September 30, 2016. In its motion,
Defendant stated that it “has abated the assessments from which Plaintiff appealed.”
Considering that Defendant agreed to provide Plaintiff with the relief requested, this case is
ready for decision. Now, therefore,
IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that Defendant shall cancel its Notice of
Assessment, dated February 6, 2017. Defendant shall issue or otherwise credit to Plaintiff any
applicable refund, plus statutory interest.
