RS 946 - Listing and assessing of stock and real estate; payment of tax; recovery from stockholders
All the taxes assessed against shares of stock shall be paid by the capital stock association, and it shall be entitled to collect the amount thus paid from the stockholders or their transferees. The taxes on the shares of the stock and real estate owned by any capital stock association shall be collected in the same manner as the taxes on the other property of like nature are collected. In the event any capital stock association doing business in this state, chartered under the laws of the United States or this state, is by decision of the courts, held not to be liable to pay the taxes on the shares of stock of the stockholders, then the taxes shall be collected from and paid by such stockholders, and each stockholder failing to pay the taxes may be proceeded against in the manner provided for the collection of taxes on movable property.
