APPEAL FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF PENNSYLVANIA

Syllabus

This case presents the question whether the Commerce Clause of the Federal Constitution is violated by two Pennsylvania statutes which impose lump-sum annual taxes on the operation of trucks on Pennsylvania's highways. One challenged statute requires that an identification marker be affixed to every truck over a specified weight, and imposes an annual flat fee ($25 from 1980 through March 1983) for such marker. The statute exempts trucks registered in Pennsylvania by providing that the marker fee shall be deemed a part of the vehicle... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (ibflat2) http://priceperpound.info/topic/1340 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 22:03:30 PST http://priceperpound.info/topic/1339/Helmrich-Transportation-Systems-Inc-v-City-of-Philadephia

MEMORANDUM

STEWART DALZELL, District Judge.

This case is the local exemplar of a national phenomenon. In the mid-1990s, Congress enacted a new law preempting certain local "motor carrier" regulations. Since then, towing companies across the country, from California to Missouri to New York, have challenged municipal towing ordinances as preempted by the federal law. Here, plaintiffs contend that the federal... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (ibflat2) http://priceperpound.info/topic/1339 Wed, 31 Aug 2011 21:58:31 PST http://priceperpound.info/topic/1338/Auto-Club-of-New-York-Inc-v-Dykstra

SYLLABUS BY THE COURT

1. Summary Judgment: Jurisdiction: Appeal and Error. Generally, the denial of a motion for summary judgment is not a final, appealable order. However, when adverse parties have each moved for summary judgment and the trial court has sustained one of the motions, the reviewing court obtains jurisdiction over both motions and may determine the controversy which is the subject of those motions or make an order specifying the facts which appear without substantial controversy and direct further proceedings as it deems just.

2. Declaratory Judgments: Appeal and Error. When... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (ibflat2) http://priceperpound.info/topic/1331 Wed, 03 Aug 2011 21:58:00 PST http://priceperpound.info/topic/1330/Marshall-s-Towing-vs-Department-of-State-Police-Oregon- Marshall's Towing v. Dep't of State Police
