Since when does the IRS try its cases in regular courts? I thought they had a special IRS tax court that they heard these things in.

Tax court is an arm of the IRS, why would you cry wolf to the wolf? If you look up the tax court cases they are always settled in the favor of government. I have not found one that found the government in error. People are beginning to understand they have better results with a district court.

I think the "IRS Reform" legislation passed a very few years ago chaged some of that. One of the changes was, in effect, if the IRS claims you owe money, they have to prove it. What a concept.
Well this thread is about to get locked or pulled - as was pointed out above, there are two or three other threads with this same story.

This was a criminal trial. IRS court is civil.
