After three hours of arguments, attorneys have one week to submit final briefs, with a critical deadline looming before August public hearings to set next year’s tax rates. The lawsuit, filed by taxpayers and local districts, claims the tax cap designations—split by population—are unconstitutional “special local laws” with no rational basis. State defenders argue the system was crafted to help counties update property assessments and isn’t meant to be flawless. Meanwhile, a separate legal challenge to the stadium subsidies themselves is set for September. The judge’s ruling could invalidate the tax cap provisions, reshaping property tax obligations for hundreds of Missouri counties.
