Annotations

When the Tax Commissioner holds factfinding hearings he is not acting as a member of the State Board of Equalization. Therefore, delegation of that duty to his deputy does not violate this section. Box Butte County v. State Board of Equalization and Assessment, 206 Neb. 696, 295 N.W.2d 670 (1980).
