Description
Doug McHoney (PwC’s International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Wade Sutton, International Tax Leader for PwC’s Washington National Tax Practice. Doug and Wade kick off with the persona of a law school professor, providing an overall perspective on the US common law system, and how the US court system works. They then cover the importance three of Supreme Court’s recent tax case decisions – Moore v. United States, Corner Post v. United States, & Loper Bright v. United States. They start by ‘briefing’ the cases before noting why taxpayers should pay attention to each case. Additionally, they cover a potential wealth tax, the possible effects of the cases on litigation and tax controversy, what constituted the majority opinion in Loper Bright, the overruling of the Chevron doctrine, and regulatory validity.
