ORIGINAL: tazzygirl A four-count information charged Jackson, a former Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) agent, with willfully failing to make an income tax return for each of the four years from 2000 through 2003, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7203. Each count alleged Jackson had the obligation to make an income tax return “as required by Title 26, United States Code, and by regulations made under the authority thereof.” The information alleged Jackson had gross income in excess of (1) $12,950 in 2000 (Count 1); (2) $13,400 in 2001 (Count 2); (3) $13,850 in 2002 (Count 3); and (4) $15,600 in 2003 (Count 4). At trial, Jackson testified, inter alia, she did not file income tax returns for those four years because, based on her research of the revenue code and regulations, she did not believe she was required to do so. The jury convicted Jackson on all counts. Counsel represented Jackson at trial, but, prior to sentencing, Jackson discharged her attorney and elected to proceed pro se. http://www.justice.gov/tax/Jackson_Decision.pdf This is what MOST people get convicted with. IF you wish to fight this law, you better do so while filing your taxes. Seems even the Supreme Court, despite someone else deciding it doesnt have the right, will dismiss the argument of the admendment being invalid. I dont know the circumstances behind her arguments or the case just because someone feels they are not obligated does not mean they are in fact not obligated.
