Los ANGELES, July 10. 1879.
DL. II. Bilderrain, City Assessor
DEAR SIR: In accordance with
your request l herewith submit
the following opinion, relating to
the assessment Of money leash on
handy in the several banks of this
city:
Sec. 1907 of the Political Code
provides that all property within
this State, except tie property of
the United States, of the State and
of municipal corporations, is sub
ject to taxation.
BY Sec. $500 of the Political
Code the Assessor must prepare an
assessment book, with appropriate
headings, alphabetically. arranged,
in which must be listed all proper
ty within the county, and in which
must be specified, in separate col
umns, under the appropriate heads !:
/. The name of the person to
whom the property is assessed.

Amount of money.

II will be seen then that it Is the
duty of the Assessor to assess
money and to assess it by the pro-
visions of Sec. 1928 of said Code,
between the first Monday of March
and the first Monday of July, to
persons who own, claim, have the
possession or control thereof.
understand that on the 1st day
of July you assessed the several
banks in this city for the amount
of money then on hand In those
banks, designated in their sworn
statements as assets of the banks,
aud in these statements, designated
as cash on hand, as follows:
Farmers Il Merchants Bank,
$20S. SAT. .S5; Com mercial Bank, $685.
900; Los Angeles County Bank, $15,-
0S2 70. 1t is contended that large
proportion of these amounts are
due depositors and do not belong to
the banks, and the amount of the
deposits should be deducted from
this amount and the balance, only,
assessed as the bank property. A
large amount of the money, per-
haps the whole, may be due depos.
itors. The banks may have a hum
dred thousand dollars worth of
property and be indebted for twice
that amount, but the hundred
thousand dollars worth of property
will not be exempted from taxation
on that account. The depositors
of this money are mere creditors
of the banks. They have a claim
against it with other creditors, not
for any particular money, but for
a certain amount of money. The
money deposited has been used by
the bank as Its own and when
called for replaced, not with the
identical money deposited, but
with its equivalent. regard all
deposits (not special deposits) after
the money is deposited as belong
ing to the bank and the depositors
creditors, who only have claim
against it for the equivalent in
money OF the amount deposited
| therefore regard it as your duty
to adhere to the assessments as
you have made them in this re-
spect, and allow no deduction
merely because these institutions
may be indebted of their assets in
certain amounts to persons who
may have deposited with them.
Under the decision of the Su-
preme Court of this State people
VS.. Hibernia Savings and Loan
Society, 81 Cal. 2i3,) the depositors
cannot be assessed for the amount
deposited, on the ground that these
dep0sitors are merely creditors, and
credits due them are not taxable.
1t would not be within the
bounds of reason to suppose that
the Court could also held that the
money should escape taxation alto
gether. 1t belongs to somebody,
and until the new Constitution be-
comes law 10 can only be assessed
as the property of the bank, which
merely owes 1t to those who have
deposited 1t. Respectfully,
JOHN +. GODFREY,
City Attorney.
