Eleventh Circuit Holds Florida’s Rental Tax is Preempted by Federal Indian Law, but Not Utility Tax
Here is the opinion in Seminole Tribe of Florida v. Stranburg. An excerpt:
Benjamin Franklin said, “[I]n this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” He was almost right. As this case illustrates, even taxes are not certain when it comes to matters affecting Indian tribes. In this appeal, we consider whether Florida’s Rental Tax and Florida’s Utility Tax, as applied to matters occurring on Seminole Tribe lands, violate the tenets of federal Indian law. For the reasons that follow, we find that the Utility Tax as it involves activities on Tribe land does not, but the Rental Tax does.

Order here.
Although the FOIA favors the disclosure of government records for the good of the public, the DOJ has met its burden to show the OPR, OTJ, and EOUSA’s refusals to confirm or
deny the existence of the records the Tribe is seeking are justified under Exemptions 6 and 7(C).
