References: <3.0.16.19970209061214.29878b74@mailhost.primenet.com> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thanks for the Kudos. I have always had a real strong feeling that I've been a lawyer in some other life. I have alot of intuitive guidance besides my PhD from the school of hard knocks :-) Yes you are more than welcome to share it. Remember, however, I deliberately did not do it in the form of a legal memorandum, which I could, for two reasons. One, I did not want to unfairly taint anyones opinion that had not already read the case and two I didn't think it was worth the time. Just to add a thought, there are alot of other things missing for me...in the procedural process i mean. anyway, I would like to find out where they got their coaching so we/others don't go there, and I'm still interested in those other 12 cases. If you read the IRS in a particular way they usually give up their hole card. Like in the Handbook for special agents they actually have a list of all the cases the law department uses in defense/rebuttal/or attack against "illegal tax protestors". If you read the cases you will already know what they are gonna do or say. The biggest sin I see is that with a little homework Burnett could have addressed the declaratory judgment act and the anti-injunction act etc., right in their initial brief. (not that it would have worked if they didnt pick the right court) The IRS (any government body) is not creative. If you read any of their cases they all sound the same. I spend about 10 years in one form of govt service or another and I know how they think. Here's my philosophy in reference to the govt: "If its written down, they must do it; if its not written down, they can't do it." remember, a prerequisite to govt service is no independent thinking allowed! I would love a copy of your proof of service form, at your convenience paul, no stop what you're doing requests, OK? I spent a few hours last night working on my email. I will let you know when eudora is up and running. then we can do the three tests again, OK? Dawn
