The Dubious Anonymity Of Virtual Currency Transactions
So if you are looking to hide your financial misdeeds, you should be doing it yourself rather than using exchanges.

Michael Jackson’s Estate Mostly Prevails In Valuation Fight With IRS
Round numbers going into trial the disputed assets were valued at $5 million by the Estate and $482 million by the IRS. Judge Holmes at $111 million leaned toward the Estate, but it was not a real blowout. The top estate tax rate in 2009 was 45% so the final check the Estate writes will probably still be, as we say, a number.

They totaled over $1.1 billion with image and likeness adjusted upward by $434 million, NHT II by $469 million and NHT III by $58 million.

New York AG Supports Community Group In Battle With AIG Over Tax Credit Property
The not for profits have been vigorous in making their argument to the public, whereas the investors have saved their arguments for the actual courts, where they are doing well at least at the federal level. It seems like the only people defending them in public are a couple of people that show up in my twitter feed.
Fourth Class Action Suit Against Syndicated Conservation Easement Promoters
The whole SCE industry is based on a theory that I find preposterous, but I believe many people seriously embrace. The theory is that when property is being valued for conservation easement purposes, due to the perpetuity, the valuation is somehow dethatched from the current market for similar property. The emphasis on highest and best use ends up being fantastical. The market for undeveloped land is imperfect, but it is not filled with stupid people.
Conservation Appraisers Strike Back At IRS With Class Action Suit
The complaint was filed in the US District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The most mysterious defendant is the IRS employee known as “Campaign Executive Champion” (CEC) of the “Conservation Tax Force” (CTF). If those named IRS agents are like the Avengers, then CEC is Nick Fury.
