Federal Tax Cases to Watch In 2015

David B. Blair, a Washington, D.C.-based partner in Crowell & Moring's Tax Group, shares his thoughts on a major pricing dispute case, Amazon.com Inc. v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and its importance for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). "This could be the IRS' second attempt after the Veritas case to win this issue of cost-sharing arrangements and whether a buy-in should be based on a cost-sharing method. Veritas was a big loss for the IRS," Blair noted.
