Outcome
The appellate court affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment for the Department of Revenue, holding that ARUP Laboratories, a Utah-based nonprofit pathology laboratory, is subject to Washington's Business and Occupation tax on income from testing services provided to Washington medical providers, and rejected ARUP's argument that it qualifies as an arm of the State of Utah exempt from taxation.
