Creation Science Hall Of Fame Granted 501(c)(3) Status
The Creation Science Hall of Fame inducted Kent Hovind a few months ago. The discussion of Dr. Hovind’s legal struggles in his CSHOF bio, if you will excuse the expression, evolved over time. At one point there was a fairly elaborate characterization of him as a tax protester, but Hovind himself denies that he is a protester. So ultimately discussion of Dr. Hovind’s tax problems in his CSHOF bio became extinct.
State Court Can Order Custodial Parent To Release Exemption
In Massachusetts, it seems to be common to alternate the exemption from year to year, which seems to be a formula for fomenting needless bickering. My theory for the emphasis on the dependency exemption in divorce negotiations is that it somehow makes the noncustodial parent feel validated as a parent. The truth is that the IRS and the Tax Court have no interest in what kind of a parent you are and would be ill-equipped to make a determination if they did.

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.
