J. A. Folger & Co. v. Commissioner

Smith, dissenting:

I dissent from so much of the opinion of the Board as holds that the tax liability of each of the petitioners for the year ended November 30, 1921, was extinguished by the statute of limitations prior to the issuance of the deficiency notices for that year.

The consolidated and information returns filed for that year showed that the parent company was liable for the tax due on the consolidated return. All of the evidence goes to show that the parent company acted as the agent of the subsidiary corporations.

Marquette, Sternhagen, and Goodrich agree with this dissent.
