Alaska Supreme Court upholds legality of fish landing tax May 20th 12:37 pm | Jacob Resneck, KUCB News   A raw fish tax that has pumped tens of millions of dollars into coastal communities over the past decade has survived a legal challenge before Alaska s highest court. The state can tax seafood caught beyond the 3-mile line in federal waters, then loaded on a bulk carrier at the dock for foreign export, without violating provisions of the U.S. Constitution. That s according to the Alaska Supreme Court, which released its 31-page ruling May 7. Fishermen s Finest, a Washington state seafood company that operates factory trawlers and exports most of its product overseas, had challenged the state s tax in court. It argued that there are protections against state taxation on shipping in coastal state waters, and a lower state superior court agreed.
