U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 14-2070
The United States Tax Court
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Beam and Bye, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Federal Tax. By filing a tax return claiming "head of
household" status, the taxpayer did not file a "separate return" within
the meaning of Section 6013(b)(1) of the Code, and Section 6013(b)(2)(B)
did not prohibit from amending his status to married filing jointly; as a
result, taxpayer is entitled to a credit and refund and the decision of
the Tax Court is reversed. Judge Bye, dissenting.
