Judge Sets July 12 Hearing on Md. Digital Ad Tax

U.S. District Court in Baltimore plans oral argument July 12 at 2 p.m. on remaining issues in U.S. Chamber of Commerce and others’ lawsuit against Maryland’s digital ad tax law, Judge Lydia Griggsby ordered Monday in case 1:21-cv-00410-DKC. After ruling in March that the Tax Injunction Act precluded federal courts from reviewing the tax itself, the district court is weighing the constitutionality of Maryland banning companies from passing the tax’s costs to consumers (see 2204290061).
