“Frankenstein” was back before the Georgia Supreme Court Wednesday. It’s a monster case worth enough money for lawyers to keep bringing it back to life.

Atlanta and Fulton County have been fighting for years over who has the right to tax a 1.4-acre lot in an industrial park on the western side of the city that has far greater importance than the boarded-up bank building that sits there. City leaders have decided to use the land as a test case, according to the lawyer who argued for them last time the matter was decided by the high court two years ago and again Wednesday, Robert Ashe III of Bondurant, Mixson & Elmore. If Atlanta can establish the right to annex that one piece of land, it could theoretically annex—and tax—the entire industrial park. So millions of tax dollars annually forever are riding on the question.
