enjoin the assessment or collection under this part of any tax or any
amount of tax required to be collected.


13102.  No suit or proceeding shall be maintained in any court for

has been duly filed in accordance with Article 2 of Chapter 7 of this
part.



13103.  Within 90 days after the mailing of the notice of the board'

court of competent jurisdiction in any county or city and county in
the State in which the Attorney General has an office for the
recovery of the whole or any part of the amount with respect to which
the claim has been disallowed. The Attorney General shall defend the
action.



13104.  If the board fails to mail notice of its action on a claim
for refund or credit within six months after the claim is filed with
