October’s most interesting case involved a limited liability company that took losses in excess of basis flowing from a lower-tier partnership. IRS discovered the error after it was too late to correct the applicable returns. Does the LLC need to reduce basis in the lower tier partnership by those losses? The Tax Court said that it does. We also examine whether Collection Due Process appeal rights apply to FBAR penalties. The Tax Court noted that they do not.
