"Texas Court Overturns Local Sales Tax Sourcing Rule in Major Victory for Texas Cities," Citybiz

Citybiz reported on a significant ruling from the 250th District Court in Travis County, featuring insight from Bryan Dotson, senior counsel in Chamberlain Hrdlicka's Tax Controversy practice in San Antonio, regarding the invalidation of portions of Texas Comptroller Rule 3.334.
