About TaxCourtBlog
Our Mission
TaxCourtBlog exists to advance access to tax knowledge. The purpose of this site is to document and discuss changes in the jurisprudence of taxation in the United States, with a special focus on the US Tax Court, and including other federal courts, agency guidance, and state courts. Tax law is often locked behind paywalls, dense opinions, and specialized vocabulary; this project aims to make those developments easier to find and understand for everyone.
This site provides advanced discussion for lawyers in addition to more educational information for taxpayers. Whether you are a tax practitioner seeking in-depth analysis of recent decisions or a taxpayer looking to understand important developments in tax law, TaxCourtBlog aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for understanding the evolving landscape of tax jurisprudence. In addition to featured articles and news coverage of tax court decisions, the site includes extensive topic pages designed to help taxpayers understand common tax issues and compliance requirements.
How Articles Are Produced
News summaries on this site are generated with the assistance of artificial intelligence, working from primary source documents such as US Tax Court opinions, IRS written determinations and bulletins, and Federal Register notices. Featured articles credited to a named author are written by that person. All content is published under the editorial responsibility of the site's operator. AI-generated summaries are intended as a starting point for research and education, not as a substitute for reading the underlying authority.
Who Operates This Site
This site is operated by David Brunk, a member of the Oregon State Bar. For more information about David's practice, visit www.newmanbrunk.com.
