- In 2022, a Texas District Court ruled against Texas Tax Rule 3.334, citing procedural errors
- The court demanded the rule be corrected following proper Texas procedures
- The Texas Comptroller complied by re-amending and re-adopting the rule
- The amendment changed the definition of place of business for local sales tax purposes
- Under the new rule, a location needed sales personnel to be considered a place of business
- Locations with only technological setups like servers or websites did not qualify
- On December 3, 2025, the court invalidated the amended rule, supporting the cities’ stance
- The court found the amended rule’s definitions did not align with state laws regarding sales tax sourcing
