Sec. 6. (a) This section applies with respect to judicial review of final determinations of the Indiana board of tax review.

(b) The burden of demonstrating the invalidity of an action taken by the Indiana board of tax review is on the party to the judicial review proceeding asserting the invalidity.

(d) The tax court shall make findings of fact on each material issue on which the court's decision is based.

(e) The tax court shall grant relief under section 7 of this chapter only if the tax court determines that a person seeking judicial relief has been prejudiced by an action of the Indiana board of tax review that is:

(1) arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law;

(2) contrary to constitutional right, power, privilege, or immunity;

(3) in excess of statutory jurisdiction, authority, or limitations, or short of statutory jurisdiction, authority, or limitations;

(4) without observance of procedure required by law; or

(5) unsupported by substantial or reliable evidence.
