Can Lindsey Springer’s PRA (Paperwork Reduction Act) Defense Work Against Willful Failure to File Charges?
Tips & Tricks for Court member Carrol thinks with some modifications it can:
After Lindsey Springer was convicted recently in spite of his use of his well researched and thought out Paperwork Reduction Act defense, Carrol delivered for our edificationwhat I consider to be some excellent research I thought you could learn a lot fromto my Tips & Tricks for Court group on Yahoo:
Springer only had a some of what was necessary. There is more that would have made his case much more successful.
The IRS, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue and the Department of the Treasury are all obligated by law to also comply with the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Federal Register Act.
In order to comply with these, 2 Treasury Directives are in place – TD 25-03 Subject: Filing Documents for Publication with the Office of the Federal Register; TD 25-04 Subject: The Privacy Act of 1974, As Amended.
In the Federal Register publication, the Internal Revenue Service is compelled by law to observe the Paperwork Reduction Act.
There are more than forms alone that require it, the regulations themselves are obligated by law to be printed in the Federal Register.
Failure of the Service to comply with the Federal Register Act means that they have not established broad applicability and official effect. re: 44 USC 1506, and 5 USC 553.
49 Stat. 501 Sect 5: “There shall be published in the Federal Register (1) all Presidential proclamations and Executive orders, except such as have no general applicability and legal effect or are effective only against Federal agencies or persons in their capacity as officers, agents or employees thereof; (2) such documents or classes of documents as the President shall determine from time to time have general applicability and legal effect; and (3) such documents or classes or documents as may be required so to be published by Act of the Congress: Provided, That for the purposes of this Act every document or order which shall prescribe a penalty shall be deemed to have general applicability and legal effect.”
I considered it a advisable piece of work to see if I could determinethe regulations that give general applicability and lawful effect with respect to the 1040 form income section.
I gathered a list from 26 CFR 602.101 to detect the legitimate regulations associated to the 1040 form income section. There are more than100 of them.
