The IRS recently published a memorandum that provides guidance on the
process of designating certain cases or issues for litigation (the
"IRS Memo"). When a case or
issue is designated for litigation, a taxpayer's ability to try
to resolve that issue through the IRS Independent Office of Appeals
("Appeals") is foreclosed.

for litigation existed previously, the IRS Memo provides more
transparency on certain details of the process, and clarifies the
procedure if a taxpayer wishes to challenge a designation for
litigation.
