Michael Goller was a featured in Bloomberg Law’s “Supreme Court Case Poised to Refine Due Process in Tax Disputes,” lending his legal insights on a pivotal U.S. Supreme Court case shaping taxpayer due process rights. Goller remarked on the complex balance the case presents, noting concern about the U.S. Tax Court potentially "slamming the door on petitioners," while also acknowledging the risk of overwhelming the court with collection hearings if more cases are allowed. He explained that if the IRS wins, it could become harder for taxpayers to challenge tax cases due to reduced access to the Tax Court, but if the IRS loses, the court could face a flood of new cases—highlighting a critical dilemma at the heart of tax administration and taxpayer rights.
