Supreme Court of the United States

Hinck v. United States

May 21, 2007550 U.S. 501

Summary

The Supreme Court held that 26 U.S.C. § 6404(h) grants the Tax Court exclusive jurisdiction to review refusals to abate interest under § 6404(e)(1). The Court reasoned that the detailed statutory scheme preempts general refund actions in district courts or the Court of Federal Claims.
