§ 4821. Procedure
When jurisdiction over property, real or personal, for purposes of taxation is claimed by more than one municipality or is claimed by a municipality in this State and a municipality in another state, a person or corporation whose property is subject to such conflicting claims may pay the tax thereon to any municipality in this State claiming jurisdiction, under protest, or with notice of the other claim of jurisdiction. When it shall be finally determined by any court of last resort having jurisdiction that such property, real or personal, was improperly or unlawfully taxed by the municipality to which such tax had been paid, or if any compromise or adjustment is made that shall place the property in question in a jurisdiction other than that in which it is so taxed, the person or corporation paying the same under protest, or with notice as herein provided, may recover the same from the municipality to which the same was so paid in a civil action under this section.
