Gold Finger's Casino. Inc. v. State Department of Taxes, 123 State 2d 456 (2000) applies and defines the elements of State Code Art. 2 1423

The following key facts were noted by the Gold Finger's court as relevant to the legal reasoning and holding:

Gold Finger's had to pay the tax because the same tax was enforced against numerous other casinos, who also made a lot of money, and Gold Finger's failure to pay taxes was based on a misrepresentation by a rather high ranking state official who thought she had the authority to act accordingly.

Supreme Court noted four factors required to invoke detrimental reliance against a governmental agency:

(3) extreme harm resulting from that reliance,

1. How can your office argue this on behalf of your client, John Doyle?
2. How will the opposition argue it?

(4) gross injustice to the individual:

1. How can your office argue this on behalf of your client, John Doyle?
2. How will the opposition argue it?
3. Which party do you believe has the stronger argument under the precedent case?
4. Does Section 470 of the Public Health act impact the above case law application in any way? Discuss briefly.
