Taxpayers appealed the assessed values of their St. Louis County properties for the 2014 tax year to the County Board of Equalization, which dismissed their appeals without hearings. They then appealed to the State Tax Commission, prompting the St. Louis County Assessor to seek a writ of prohibition. The trial court issued a permanent writ, finding the Commission lacked authority to modify the assessments. The appellate court affirmed, holding that the Commission had no authority to grant the requested relief under section 138.135.2 without claims of new construction or improvements, and that section 138.135.3 did not require a hearing without a specific request from the property owner.
