Trump Indictment – 34 Counts Of Falsifying – What Is The Other Crime?
Here is the tax thing about legal expense. Is a legal expense deductible ? Well it depends. Until 2021 Trumps return was done by a firm called Mazars. Mazars is rated number 30 in Accounting Today’s latest top 100. I am going to go out on a limb and speculate that Trump was the most famous client of Mazars. So the team doing the return is probably not a bunch of people who just fell off the turnip truck. If I was the TO CFO and I was looking to bury this expense so it would be deducted without question the last account I would have it be paid out of is Trump’s personal account. That is the account which seems most likely to include nondeductible legal expenses.
Third Circuit Upholds Tax Court In Large Dollar Horse Hobby Loss Opinion
He mentioned the Dreicer decision which is actually a sort of hilarious story of a trustifarian touring the world in search of the perfect steak. Dreicer lost in Tax Court and appealed to the DC Circuit (he was an expat). The Tax Court judge had indicated that it was not reasonable to expect a profit from the activity. The DC Circuit sent the case back to the Tax Court indicating that that was not the correct standards. What you have to have is the objective of making a profit, not the expectation. Back at the Tax Court again Dreicer still lost, but I give him credit for inspiring Reilly’s Eighteenth Law of Tax Planning – Honest objective trumps realistic expectation

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. Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
