will try to dispose of nearly all the
cases today. Alls kinds of stories and
excuses are expected to be offered, such
as, We did not think 1t was past the
time to pay our dog tax The dog is
only a couple of months old and we did
not think it was necessary to pay a
tax. The dog does not belong to us,
as Ii came to our house few days ago
and since that time we have been feed
ing the homeless creature. We gave our
dog away some time ago, but II just
came back yesterday and we cannot
get rid of him"
These are one of a few of excuses
that have been offered in the past, but
Judge Prest knows only too well that
the dog owners have not been living w
the state and city laws and will evil
IDENTIFY impose a fine on most of the
delinquent taxpayers.
