State tax law is known for its complexity. Practitioners are asked to reconcile numerous complex, and sometimes seemingly-conflicting, state laws and rules to establish the taxability (or not) of sales or income. In all the confusion, it is easy to forget the other side of the coin: procedure. From audit through litigation, state tax procedure is highly technical with rules that are easy to overlook. This joint CLE between the Florida Bar Tax Section and Florida Bar Government Lawyers Section is designed to provide the details of state tax procedure from audit through litigation.
