The state Senate gave final approval to a bill that would make it easier for taxpayers to get refunds of taxes collected based on an unconstitutional or misapplied law.
The bill now goes to Gov. John Bel Edwards, whose administration has raised concerns about the unpredictable new costs the measure will create for state government.
Under current law, taxpayers can pay a disputed tax under protest and sue the state for a refund. They can also file a claim with the state Board of Tax Appeals, though if successful the legislature still has to choose to appropriate the money to repay.
