Scholar Al Strikes At Dixieland Boondockery Again

So IRS wanted to give them zero, Judge Lauber allowed them in my mind a substantial deduction well over $150,000. On a percentage basis, it is not so much – slightly over 0.15%.  Just to be clear that is not 15% of the total claimed.

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.
