1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That
no suit for the purpose of restraining the assessment or collec-
tion of any tax, State or local, shall be maintained in any court
of this Commonwealth, except when the party has no adequate
remedy at law; provided this act shall not affect any pending
suit.
