The court is standing by its April decision that the county cannot charge the car dealer a merchant's capital tax on inventory.
Shelor moved its inventory out of the area by tax day to avoid paying an amount they deemed unfair.
The court said because the inventory wasn't physically there .. it's not taxable.
Now county officials can either adjust the tax scale or get the General Assembly to change tax code.
Shelor representatives say they are willing to work with the county and pay their fair share of taxes.

On May 27, the rebels raided a resort in the southwest Philipines and
took twenty hostages, including Guillermo Sobero of Corona, California,
and an American missionary couple from Kansas.
A broadcast message from the Abu Sayyaf group claimed that Sobero had
been beheaded and another hostage would meet the same fate if the
government did not meet their demands.
The muslim rebellion in the Southern Philippines is one of the world's
longest running low- level insurgencies. The group is fighting for a
muslim homeland in the mainly Catholic Philipines.
Last year, they captured a group of tourists, who were released after
the Germans paid millions of dollars. The Philippines government insists
that this time no ransom will be paid.
