Mosquito Tax Challenge Going to LA Supreme Court?

The Times-Picayune reports that the town of Church Point has appealed a decision of the Louisiana Third Circuit Court of Appeal that refused to strike down a mosquito control tax approved earlier this month. The town argues that the mosquito control district didn't have the authority to call the election, but both the district and appeal courts refused to address the constitutional issues, finding that the town had filed its complaint too late.
