Steve Meier was quoted in an October 13 story from Law360, "IRS To Take Deeper Look At Tax-Free Distributions," on the Internal Revenue Service announcing it will increase its scrutiny of certain stock distributions, mergers and liquidations and has begun reconsidering related issues that the agency has ruled favorably on in the past. Meier said that the announcement seems consistent with the pilot program the agency launched in September under which taxpayers can request letter rulings that interpret and apply tax laws to their specific set of facts regarding Section 355 distributions.
