Brief Of Amicus Curiae Tax Professors In Support Of Respondent In Moore V. United States, Donald B. Tobin, Ellen P. Aprill 2023 University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law

Brief Of Amicus Curiae Tax Professors In Support Of Respondent In Moore V. United States, Donald B. Tobin, Ellen P. Aprill

Faculty Scholarship

Petitioners in Moore v. United States have argued to the Supreme Court that the word “incomes” in the Sixteenth Amendment authorizes only the taxation of “realized” income. Thus, they assert, a repatriation tax (referred to as MRT) in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is invalid because it taxes unrealized gains. While other briefs in the case explain that, as properly understood, the tax at issue taxes only realized gains, this brief counters the petitioners’ Sixteenth Amendment argument. It explains that economists, accountants, and lawyers in the early twentieth century all defined income in broad terms, embracing the definition of …


Unreimbursed Medical Expense Tax Deductions In Light Of Per-And Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, Tyler Young 2023 The Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law

Unreimbursed Medical Expense Tax Deductions In Light Of Per-And Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, Tyler Young

Catholic University Law Review

Per– and Ployfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) have been used in a wide variety

of products due to their ability to reduce friction. However, studies have shown

that exposure to PFAS can cause harmful effects in humans. In fact, it has been

called a “national emergency” in testimony before Congress. As a result, there

have been efforts to limit exposure to the disease-causing substances through

abatement and avoidance. The Internal Revenue Code, through the

unreimbursed medical expense tax deduction of I.R.C. § 213, may offer one

policy solution for individuals seeking to participate in abatement activities.

This comment explores the development and …

Taxation Of Intellectual Property Litigation, Chitra A. Ram 2023 Indiana University McKinney School of Law

Taxation Of Intellectual Property Litigation, Chitra A. Ram

IP Theory

In the field of intellectual property law, few attorneys consider the tax implications of legal proceedings prior to undertaking litigation. In studying the interdisciplinary space between intellectual property law, litigation, and taxation practices, this Article hopes to further expand existing research on the scope and incentives behind intellectual property protection in the United States, the policies underlying the system of federal income taxation adopted by the United States, and the precedents upheld by courts in deciding matters at the nexus of intellectual property litigation costs, expenses, and taxation.


A Democratic Perspective On Tax Law, Clint Wallace 2023 University of South Carolina School of Law

A Democratic Perspective On Tax Law, Clint Wallace

Washington Law Review

As democracies around the world have faltered, legal scholars in fields as diverse as election law, labor law, and administrative law have turned to tax law to repair and support democratic governments. Taxation offers a toolset well-equipped to address concerns raised by democratic theorists focused on the conditions that shape a democratic community and help it to flourish. Tax laws can rectify social dynamics characterized by economic inequality and can help establish and strengthen civic institutions, among many possible interventions. But legal scholars evaluating and designing tax policies generally focus on the standard normative criteria of efficiency, equity, and administrability, …


Twenty Years After Krieger V Law Society Of Alberta: Law Society Discipline Of Crown Prosecutors And Government Lawyers, Andrew Flavelle Martin 2023 Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University

Twenty Years After Krieger V Law Society Of Alberta: Law Society Discipline Of Crown Prosecutors And Government Lawyers, Andrew Flavelle Martin

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Krieger v. Law Society of Alberta held that provincial and territorial law societies have disciplinary jurisdiction over Crown prosecutors for conduct outside of prosecutorial discretion. The reasoning in Krieger would also apply to government lawyers. The apparent consensus is that law societies rarely exercise that jurisdiction. But in those rare instances, what conduct do Canadian law societies discipline Crown prosecutors and government lawyers for? In this article, I canvass reported disciplinary decisions to demonstrate that, while law societies sometimes discipline Crown prosecutors for violations unique to those lawyers, they often do so for violations applicable to all lawyers — particularly …

Reply Brief Of The Petitioners-Taxpayers Edward A. And Doris Zelinsky, Edward A. Zelinsky 2023 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law

Reply Brief Of The Petitioners-Taxpayers Edward A. And Doris Zelinsky, Edward A. Zelinsky

Amicus Briefs

The Division’s Brief confirms that the Tribunal should rule for the taxpayers, Edward A. and Doris Zelinsky Perhaps most egregiously, the Division disparages binding factual stipulations to which the parties agreed at the outset of this litigation. These stipulations confirm that, from March 15, 2020 through December 31, 2020 (“the COVID period”), Professor Zelinsky had no New York office or classroom available to him. Consequently, Professor Zelinsky taught his classes and met with students exclusively on zoom from his Connecticut home. He did not step foot in New York for this nine and one-half month period.

The stipulated facts lead …


Are The Imposed Principles Standard? A Review Of Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension To Global Tax Politics By Martin Hearson, Opeyemi Bello 2023 Schulich School of Law

Are The Imposed Principles Standard? A Review Of Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension To Global Tax Politics By Martin Hearson, Opeyemi Bello

Dalhousie Law Journal

The publication of Martin Hearson’s book, Imposing Standards: The North-South Dimension to Global Tax Politics, coincided with heated international discussions of the most substantial policy proposals in the field of international taxation in the last century.1 Hearson’s work provides insights on how the developed countries exerted control over the negotiations of the double taxation agreement (DTA) regime, which is the basis of the current international taxation framework. It explains how the negotiations resulted in a framework that works well for the developed countries, but does not substantially address the tax revenue needs of the developing countries. The publication of the …


Tax Reporting As Regulation Of Digital Financial Markets, Young Ran (Christine) Kim 2023 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Yeshiva University

Tax Reporting As Regulation Of Digital Financial Markets, Young Ran (Christine) Kim

Washington and Lee Law Review

FTX’s recent collapse highlights the overall instability that blockchain assets and digital financial markets face. While the use of blockchain technology and crypto assets is widely prevalent, the associated market is still largely unregulated, and the future of digital asset regulation is also unclear. The lack of clarity and regulation has led to public distrust and has called for more dedicated regulation of digital assets. Among those regulatory efforts, tax policy plays an important role. This Essay introduces comprehensive regulatory frameworks for blockchain-based assets that have been introduced globally and domestically, and it shows that tax reporting is the key …

Brief Of The Petitioners-Taxpayers Edward A. And Doris Zelinsky, Edward A. Zelinsky 2023 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law

Brief Of The Petitioners-Taxpayers Edward A. And Doris Zelinsky, Edward A. Zelinsky

Amicus Briefs

As a matter of state law, New York’s own regulations and case law do not permit taxation of Professor Zelinsky’s income earned at home in Connecticut for the COVID-19 period starting on March 15, 2020. Even if New York law permitted the taxation of Professor Zelinsky’s Cardozo salary during this COVID-19 period, as a matter of federal constitutional law, the Due Process and dormant Commerce Clauses do not permit New York’s taxation of this salary earned in Connecticut. In addition, Zelinsky v. Tax Appeals Tribunal, 1 N.Y. 3d 85 (2003), cert. denied, 541 U.S. 1009 (2004), does not apply to …


The Tax And Zakat Appeal System In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia: An Overview, Ahmed A Altawyan 2023 Al-Imam Muhammad Ibn Saud Islamic University

The Tax And Zakat Appeal System In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia: An Overview, Ahmed A Altawyan

مجلة جامعة الإمارات للبحوث القانونية UAEU LAW JOURNAL

The competent judicial authority for adjudicating tax disputes differs from state to state. Some laws allow general court’s jurisdiction to adjudicate tax disputes. Others allow administrative court’s jurisdiction over taxation and zakat disputes because one of the parties involved in most such disputes is the competent government authority vested with administrative decision-making powers for assessment and collection of taxes. Therefore, it is natural for the administrative judiciary to be vested with the adjudication of tax disputes. However, there is a different legal system in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) to address such disputes. This study examines the differences between …
