31 C.F.R. § 10.7 limits on unenrolled preparers upheld

Post by jg »

From the NAEA Alert:
The US Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit upheld on appeal a decision of the Middle District of Florida in Patrick H. Wright v. Mark W. Everson. The plaintiff challenged the validity of 31 CFR § 10.7(c)(1)(viii), by claiming that the Circular 230 section unlawfully and arbitrarily limits his right to represent taxpayers before IRS.
For the case, See http://www.mmsend2.com/ls.cfm?r=1644632 ... 713167.pdf
