Syllabus

<p>Tax Assessment. Approval by Board of Supervisors. Act of July SI, 1875.</p> <p>The act approved 31st of July, 1875, entitled “An act legalizing the return of assessment-rolls, and to extend the time of returning the same,” did not have the effect to validate the illegal act of a Board of Supervisors in meeting on the 12th of July, 1875, and approving at such unauthorized meeting, an assessment-roll returned on the 24th of June. That act was not intended to cure any illegal act of the Boards of Supervisors, but only the failure of assessors to return their assessment-rolls at the time prescribed by law.</p>
