Lawyer taxes due tomorrow

Occupation taxes from lawyers practicing in Decatur, Georgia, are due by tomorrow, December 31, for tax year 2015.  The bill is $425 payable to City of Decatur from each lawyer.  The $425 charge is not per law firm, it is per individual attorney.  The tax is not a regulatory fee; the tax is strictly for revenue purposes and does not constitute regulation of the practice of law.  Revenues from the tax are used to provide quality services to the public.
