§810. Prima facie presumptions
A. Any supplier, dealer, or user who shall fail to keep the records, issue the invoices, or file the reports required by this Part, shall be prima facie presumed to have sold, delivered, or used for taxable purposes all special fuels shown by a duly verified audit by the secretary, or any authorized representative, to have been delivered to such supplier, dealer, or user and unaccounted for at each place of business or place of storage from which special fuels are sold, delivered, or used for any taxable purposes.
B. The secretary is hereby authorized to fix or establish the amount of taxes, penalties, and interest due the state of Louisiana from such records of deliveries or from any records or information available to him, and, if the tax claim as developed from such procedure is not paid, such claim, and any audit made by the secretary, or an authorized representative, or any report filed by such supplier, dealer, or user, shall be admissible in evidence in any suit or judicial proceedings filed by the secretary and shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness of said claim or audit; provided that the prima facie presumption of the correctness of the claim may be overcome by evidence adduced by the supplier, dealer, or user.
