B. L. Smith, Appellants v. Charles G. Davis, Appellees

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the district court's judgment, holding that Section 2b of Article 4494n, which permits higher property assessments for hospital districts with teaching facilities in large counties, is constitutional. The Court rejected all plaintiffs' challenges, finding the classification reasonable, the caption proper, the bill not a revenue bill, and no violation of equal protection, uniform taxation, or contracts clauses.
