Deferential Review Of Tax Court Decisions Of Law: Promoting Expertise, Uniformity, And Impartiality, Andre L. Smith

Andre L. Smith

This Article continues the debate over whether the federal circuit courts of appeal should deferentially review U.S. Tax Court decisions of law.

Lingle involved a narrow (though important) issue of takings law, and on the surface it appears to be a relatively modest case. A deeper look, however, reveals that in its separation of substantive due process and regulatory takings, Lingle has tremendous potential to clarify regulatory takings doctrine. If this potential is fulfilled, Lingle is likely to be far more significant in the long term than Kelo v. City of New London, which has dominated the commentary …
