Utilizing Bankruptcy To Reduce Outstanding Tax Debts, T. Fogg, Kenneth Weil
Utilizing Bankruptcy To Reduce Outstanding Tax Debts, T. Fogg, Kenneth Weil

Exceptions to this general rule exist for tax debts secured by a tax lien or debts arising from the debtor's collection of funds on behalf of …

Financial Disability For All, T. Keith Fogg, Rachel E. Zuraw
Financial Disability For All, T. Keith Fogg, Rachel E. Zuraw
T. Keith Fogg
The Internal Revenue Code has four discreet sections that allow late filing of claims and other documents under the circumstances described in those sections. The IRS has promulgated a procedural regulation that allows it to permit late elections under prescribed circumstances. Neither the Code sections nor the Regulation cover all of the circumstances in which taxpayers have a good excuse for missing a time frame. The current provisions have developed in an ad hoc manner. More ad hoc development of this area is possible as equitable tolling litigation seeks to open up time frames under the Code despite the efforts …

Tax Court Collection Due Process Cases Take Too Long, T. Fogg, Carlton Smith
T. Keith Fogg
This report documents through Tax Court records the time it takes to complete CDP cases versus non-CDP cases and then offers solutions to what the authors perceive as a problem with the system. Because of the nature of CDP cases, the solutions focus on the administrative record preceding litigation. They do not stop with early introduction of the administrative record during the Tax Court proceeding, but also concern summary judgment in situations when the administrative record reveals no factual conflict. Delays in collection hurt the IRS's ability to collect while decreasing the taxpayer's ability to climb out of the financial …

Transparency In Private Collection Of Federal Taxes, T. Keith Fogg
T. Keith Fogg
Most federal taxes are collected from taxpayers by business entities, held in a public trust for the United States, and then paid over to the Internal Revenue Service (the IRS). While the vast majority of business entities pay over the taxes held in trust in a timely and appropriate manner, a sizeable amount, in dollar terms, does not get paid. The amount of unpaid "collected" taxes in 2008 created a $58 billion tax gap item.

In Whom We Trust, Temple K. Fogg
