Hey, you didn’t hear it from me. I’ve sworn off commenting on Murphy, remember?
I’ve said my piece on Murphy – and argued with opposing counsel. I’ve posted my mea culpa.
I’ve updated regarding Murphy’s petition for rehearing and the subsequent rejection of that petition. I’ve also referenced the Ninth Circuit’s decision not to address the 16th Amendment issues in Murphy.
So I’m about Murphyed out. Apparently, Murphy’s attorneys are not (read into that whatever you want – I don’t even want to think about the amount of legal fees in this matter).
Rather than comment on the latest bid for cert at the Supreme Court, I’ll send you over to TaxProf blog for this great piece from December 2007 and the follow-up from today.
