Supreme Court of California

In a class-action dispute concerning whether Government Code section 910 allows taxpayers to file a class action claim against a municipal governmental entity for the refund of local taxes, judgment of the court of appeals affirming trial court's denial of class certification is reversed where, consistent with City of San Jose v. Superior Court, class claims for tax refunds against a local governmental entity are permissible under Section 910 in the absence of a specific tax refund procedure set forth in an applicable governing claims statute.
