by or his agent makes and files
with the board a written appli-
cation, showing the facts upon

duction should be made.
Section 1878. EXAMINATION

fore the board grants the .appli-
cation or makes any reduction

oath, the person or the agent
making the application touch
ing the value of the property of
such person. No reduction must
be made unless such person or
agent, making the application
attends, and answers all ques-
tions pertinent to the inquiry.
ATTORNEY GENERALS
OPINION:
Section 2575 (Sec. 1888 Pol.
Code 1880 must be considered
and construed with Section
2574. This section PROHIBITS
the Board from making any re-
duction in the value of proper
ty when an application for
such reduction has been made
under Section 2574 unless the
person making such application
or his agent attends before
the Board and answers, under
oath, all questions pertinent to
such application. This simply
means that a person cannot
merely file an application I'M
der Section 2574 in order to act
on such application and make
the reduction requested. The
person filing the application
must appear before the board
in person or by attorney; the
board has no power or author
ity to grant the application and
make the reduction.
BLANK applications may be
had at the county clerks Of
fice.)
