DISTRICT COURT United States of America Case 1:14-cv-05402 [Plaintiff - Appellee] Judicial Notice -Supreme Court v. FRCP 12 (c) — judgment Circuit Rule 28 (f) - citations Victor M. Crown, et al USA v. Clarke — No. 13-301 [Defendant - Appellant] USA v. Whiting Pools — 462 US 198 MOTION FOR JUDGMENT ON THE PLEADINGS [FRCP 12 (c)(f)(g) — 49 CFR 821.17 Now comes Victor M. Crown, pro se, as provided under the order to show cause entered by □□ Circuit Court of Appeals on 3-23-2018, herewith affirming:
The defendant [Victor M. Crown, pro se] has the legal standing to bring this motion pursuant to show cause order certified by 7" Circuit on 3-26-2018 requesting a legal response by 4-6-2018 This responsive motion is then timely filed under FRCP 12 (c) — judgment on the pleadings.
On 7-16-2014, the United States of America filed a complaint for permanent injunction and other relief against defendant [Case 1:14-cv-05402 NDIL] which was authorized by the Chief Counsel of the Internal Revenue Service [IRS] and applied to IRC 7401, 7402, 7407 and 7408.
On 7-21-2014, the US Supreme Court entered a legal judgment in United States v. Clarke — No. 13-301] which stated that an affected taxpayer can challenge an IRS summons in federal district court and was/is then allowed to basically establish [prove up] “bad faith” by the Internal Revenue Service [IRS]. The written decision [published online] in case by Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan stated that a judicial proceeding to challenge an IRS summons after 7-21- 2014 [date of judgment] was to be conducted in an adversarial manner and not EX PARTE.
On 8-11-2014, US Department of Justice [Atty. Olivia Hussey-Scott] then brought an illegal EX PARTE motion on behalf of Internal Revenue Service [IRS] requesting issuance of a summons to compel defendant [Victor M. Crown] to answer questions relating to tax preparation. The EX
PARTE legal motion was not in conformity or in full legal accord with US Supreme Court decision in United States v. Clarke — No. 13-301 and written decision by Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan ruled that a legal proceeding to challenge an IRS summons was to be conducted in an adversarial way, and not EX PARTE or in accord with United States v. Whiting Pools, inc. [462 US 198 — decided 6-8-1983] mandating return of property by Internal Revenue Service.
On 9-29-2014, District Judge James Zagel granted government’s [DOJ] EX PARTE motion for issuance of a summons after DOJ failed to comply with 7-21-14 judgment of the Supreme Court
On 12-16-2014, the [illegal] summons was returned [executed] by United States. The district court is advised that [illegal] summons included fraudulent [false] dates on RETURN OF SERVICE and PROOF OF SERVICE and was filed after EX PARTE hearing involving Department of Justice.
THEREFORE, Victor M. Crown, pro se, herewith now asks District Court to take mandatory Judicial Notice of US Supreme Court decision in USA v. Clarke and enter order to strike a legal motion filed 8-11-14 and the docket entry of 9-29-14 and affirm legal doctrine of stare decisis. The dismissal of this case is also under FRCP 41[b] because of a failure to prosecute or to comply with Rules or an order of court — and intentional failure to prosecute against the filing of illegal EX PARTE motion on 8-11-14 or litigate in favor of adversarial hearing — which allows defendant to establish rule violations and “bad faith” in case and depose IRS employees [Miller][Henline], IDOR and any other person who violated federal protective order filed on 7- 20-15, an “automatic stay” entered for Lourdes Theodossis Estate on 1-9-17, “filing bar” against defendant in Shakman case from 5-26-09; and an order from District Court for immediate corrective action on tax liens under IRM 5.9.5.9.1 (08-17-16) by 3-29-18 by IRS [Chicago office] and compliance with federal mandates by State of Illinois [Comptroller] on 3-30-18 at 10:00am

Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus UNITED STATES v. CLARKE ET AL. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT No. 13-301. Argued April 23, 2014—Decided June 19, 2014 The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued summonses to respondents for information and records relevant to the tax obligations of Dynamo Holdings L. P. See 26 U.S. C. §7602(a). When respondents failed to comply, the IRS brought an enforcement action in District Court. Respondents challenged the IRS’s motives in issuing the summonses, seeking to question the responsible agents. The District Court denied the request and ordered the summonses enforced, characterizing re- spondents’ arguments as conjecture and incorrect as a matter of law. The Eleventh Circuit reversed, holding that the District Court’s re- fusal to allow respondents to examine the agents constituted an abuse of discretion, and that Circuit precedent entitled them to con- duct such questioning regardless of whether they had presented any factual support for their claims. Held: A taxpayer has a right to conduct an examination of IRS officials regarding their reasons for issuing a summons when he points to spe- cific facts or circumstances plausibly raising an inference of bad faith. Pp. 5-9. (a) A person receiving a summons is entitled to contest it in an ad- versarial enforcement proceeding. Donaldson v. United States, 400 U.S. 517, 524. But these proceedings are “summary in nature,” United States v. Stuart, 489 U.S. 353, 369, and the only relevant question is whether the summons was issued in good faith, United States v. Powell, 379 U.S. 48, 56. The balance struck in this Court’s prior cases supports a requirement that a summons objector offer not just naked allegations, but some credible evidence to support his claim of improper motive. Circumstantial evidence can suffice to meet that burden, and a fleshed out case is not demanded: The tax- payer need only present a plausible basis for his charge. Pp. 5-7.
2 UNITED STATES v. CLARKE Syllabus (b) Here, however, the Eleventh Circuit applied a categorical rule demanding the examination of IRS agents without assessing the plausibility of the respondents’ submissions. On remand, the Court of Appeals must consider those submissions in light of the standard set forth here, giving appropriate deference to the District Court’s ruling on whether respondents have shown enough to entitle them to examine the agents. However, that ruling is entitled to deference on- ly if it was based on the correct legal standard. See Fox v. Vice, 563 U.S.__, ___. And the District Court’s latitude does not extend to le- gal issues about what counts as an illicit motive. Cf. Koon v. United States, 518 U.S. 81, 100. Pp. 7-9. 517 Fed. Appx. 689, vacated and remanded. KAGAN, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.
2 UNITED STATES v. CLARKE Opinion of the Court §6201(a). And in support of that authority, Congress has granted the Service broad latitude to issue summonses “[flor the purpose of ascertaining the correctness of any return, making a return where none has been made, de- termining the liability of any person for any internal revenue tax..., or collecting any such _ liability.” §7602(a). Such a summons directs a taxpayer (or associ- ated person!) to appear before an IRS official and to pro- vide sworn testimony or produce “books, papers, records, or other data ... relevant or material to [a tax] inquiry.” §7602(a)(1). If a taxpayer does not comply with a summons, the IRS may bring an enforcement action in district court. See §§7402(b), 7604(a). In that proceeding, we have held, the IRS “need only demonstrate good faith in issuing the summons.” United States v. Stuart, 489 U. S. 353, 359 (1989). More specifically, that means establishing what have become known as the Powell factors: “that the inves- tigation will be conducted pursuant to a legitimate pur- pose, that the inquiry may be relevant to the purpose, that the information sought is not already within the [IRS’s] possession, and that the administrative steps required by the [Internal Revenue] Code have been followed.” United States v. Powell, 379 U.S. 48, 57-58 (1964). To make that showing, the IRS usually files an affidavit from the re- sponsible investigating agent. See Stuart, 489 U.S., at 360. The taxpayer, however, has an opportunity to chal- lenge that affidavit, and to urge the court to quash the summons “on any appropriate ground’—including, as relevant here, improper purpose. See Reisman v. Caplin, 375 U.S. 440, 449 (1964). 'The IRS has authority to summon not only “the person liable for tax,” but also “any officer or employee of such person,” any person having custody of relevant “books of account,” and “any other person the [IRS] may deem proper.” 26 U.S. C. §7602(a)(2). For convenience, this opinion refers only to the “taxpayer.”
4 UNITED STATES v. CLARKE Opinion of the Court issued the summonses to “punish[] [Dynamo] for refusing to agree to a further extension of the applicable statute of limitations.” App. 52. More particularly, they stated in sworn declarations that immediately after Dynamo de- clined to grant a third extension of time, the IRS, “despite having not asked for additional information for some time, ... suddenly issued” the summonses. I/d., at 95. Second, the respondents averred that the IRS decided to enforce the summonses, subsequent to Dynamo’s filing suit in Tax Court, to “evad[e] the Tax Court[’s] limitations on discov- ery” and thus gain an unfair advantage in that litigation. Id., at 53. In support of that charge, the respondents submitted an affidavit from the attorney of another Dy- namo associate, who had chosen to comply with a sum- mons issued at the same time. The attorney reported that only the IRS attorneys handling the Tax Court case, and not the original investigating agents, were present at the interview of his client. In light of those submissions, the respondents asked for an opportunity to question the agents about their motives. The District Court denied that request and ordered the respondents to comply with the summonses. According to the court, the respondents “ha[d] made no meaningful allegations of improper purpose” warranting examination of IRS agents. App. to Pet. for Cert. 18a. The court char- acterized the respondents’ statute-of-limitations theory as “mere conjecture.” Jd., at 14a. And it ruled that the re- spondents’ evasion-of-discovery-limits claim was “incorrect as a matter of law” because “[t]he validity of a summons is tested as of the date of issuance,” not enforcement—and the Tax Court proceedings had not yet begun when the IRS issued the summonses. Id., at 15a. The Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit reversed, holding that the District Court’s refusal to allow the re- spondents to examine IRS agents constituted an abuse of discretion. In support of that ruling, the Court of Appeals
6 UNITED STATES v. CLARKE Opinion of the Court adversarial. See Donaldson v. United States, 400 U.S. 517, 527 (1971); Powell, 379 U.S., at 58; Reisman, 375 U.S., at 446. The summoned party must receive notice, and may present argument and evidence on all matters bearing on a summons’s validity. See Powell, 379 U.S., at 58. Yet we have also emphasized that summons enforce- ment proceedings are to be “summary in nature.” Stuart, 489 U.S., at 369. The purpose of a summons is “not to accuse,” much less to adjudicate, but only “to inquire.” Bisceglia, 420 U.S., at 146. And such an investigatory tool, we have recognized, is a crucial backstop in a tax system based on self-reporting. See ibid. (restricting summons authority would enable “dishonest persons [to] escap[e] taxation[,] thus shifting heavier burdens to hon- est taxpayers”). Accordingly, we long ago held that courts may ask only whether the IRS issued a summons in good faith, and must eschew any broader role of “oversee[ing] the [IRS’s] determinations to investigate.” Powell, 379 U.S., at 56. So too, we stated that absent contrary evi- dence, the IRS can satisfy that standard by submitting a simple affidavit from the investigating agent. See Stuart, 489 U.S., at 359-360. Thus, we have rejected rules that would “thwart and defeat the [Service’s] appropriate investigatory powers.” Donaldson, 400 U. S., at 533. The balance we have struck in prior cases comports with the following rule, applicable here: As part of the adver- sarial process concerning a summons’s validity, the tax- payer is entitled to examine an IRS agent when he can point to specific facts or circumstances plausibly raising an inference of bad faith. Naked allegations of improper purpose are not enough: The taxpayer must offer some credible evidence supporting his charge. But circumstan- tial evidence can suffice to meet that burden; after all, direct evidence of another person’s bad faith, at this threshold stage, will rarely if ever be available. And
8 UNITED STATES v. CLARKE Opinion of the Court ents’ submissions in light of the standard we have stated. That consideration must as well give appropriate defer- ence to the District Court’s ruling. An appellate court, as the Eleventh Circuit noted, reviews for abuse of discretion a trial court’s decision to order—or not—the questioning of IRS agents. See 517 Fed. Appx., at 691, n. 2; Tiffany Fine Arts, Inc. v. United States, 469 U.S. 310, 324, n. 7 (1985). That standard of review reflects the district court’s supe- rior familiarity with, and understanding of, the dispute; and it comports with the way appellate courts review related matters of case management, discovery, and trial prac- tice. See, e.g., Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. v. Sperling, 493 U.S. 165, 172-173 (1989); Crawford-El v. Britton, 523 U.S. 574, 599-601 (1998). Accordingly, the Court of Appeals must take into account on remand the District Court’s broad discretion to determine whether a tax- payer has shown enough to require the examination of IRS investigators. But two caveats to that instruction are in order here. First, the District Court’s decision is entitled to deference only if based on the correct legal standard. See Fox v. Vice, 563 U.S. __, ___ (2011) (slip op., at 11) (“A trial court has wide discretion when, but only when, it calls the game by the right rules”). We leave to the Court of Ap- peals the task of deciding whether the District Court asked and answered the relevant question—once again, whether the respondents pointed to specific facts or cir- cumstances plausibly raising an inference of improper motive. And second, the District Court’s latitude does not extend to legal issues about what counts as an illicit motive. As indicated earlier, one such issue is embedded in the re- spondents’ claim that the Government moved to enforce these summonses to gain an unfair advantage in Tax Court litigation. See supra, at 4. The Government re- sponds, and the District Court agreed, that any such

EXHIBIT — US SUPREME COURT DECISIONS
US SUPREME COURT — 1897 — Hovey v. Elliott [167 US 409] — due process — judicial history of the law concerning contempt of court — A court possessing plenary power to punish for contempt, unlimited by statute, has no right to summon a defendant to answer, and then after obtaining jurisdiction by summons, refuse to allow party summoned to answer or strike his answer from the files, suppress testimony in his favor, and condemn him without consideration thereof and without a hearing, on theory that he was guilty of contempt of court.
In this case, DOJ attorney [Hussey-Scott] filed a legal motion to hold defendant [Victor Crown] in civil contempt after case was closed on 6-30-16; and after previously filing EX PARTE in breach of a US Supreme Court judgment entered on 7-21-14. Atty. Hussey-Scott filed Ex Parte on 8-11-14 denied defendant a constitutional right to be heard — or to present any evidence and argument on the validity of petition which affects: [1] 6-16-14 order in Shakman federal case providing legal standing to award recipients [which includes Victor Crown] to file papers in District Court; [2] 7-18-14 whistleblower award referral letter from IRS; [3] promulgation of IRS rule [IRM 4.23.17.5.2 [effective 02-26-2010] establishing a “meet and confer” requirement for complaints affecting tax preparation; and [4] IRM 8.11.3 [effective 9-24-2013] [implementation of judicial approach at IRS]. US SUPREME COURT - 1957 — Lambert v. California [355 US 225 — defense of ignorance of the law when there is no legal notice. The court held that, when One is required to register one’s presence, failure to register may only be punished when there is a probability that the accused party had knowledge of the law before committing the crime of failing to register. In this case, DOJ and IRS both clearly knew about binding US Supreme Court legal precedent [affirming adversarial as opposed to Ex Parte proceedings on 7-21-14] and the effective date to implement IRS rules [legal notice] requirements [on 9- 22-14], yet were intentionally ignored by Hussey-Scott, Henline and Miller. The legal principle ignorantia legis non excusat applies — since Hussey-Scott, Henline and Miller are covered under legal precedents and IRS procedural rules and Hussey-Scott and DOJ are supposed to fully comply with, enforce and adhere to final rulings and decisions entered by US Supreme Court and 7" CirCA.
US SUPREME COURT — 1964 — United States v. Powell [379 US 48](1964) which established factors [the Powell rules] which requires IRS to show: [a] that investigation is pursuant and relevant to a legitimate purpose; [b] that information is not already in the Commissioner’s possession; [c] that Secretary or his delegate has determined that the further examination is necessary; and [4] that other administrative steps required by Code have been followed.
US SUPREME COURT — 1971 — Donaldson v. United States [400 US 517, 527 (1971) affirming that judicial proceeding affecting enforcement of an IRS summons in District Court under 26 USC 7604[b] is not ex parte but adversarial: and that affected individuals are entitled to contest it in an enforcement proceeding [United States v. Bisceglia — 420 U.S. 141, 146 (1975). Atty. Hussey- Scott falsified the case record because | did have legal standing as Shakman award recipient to file in District Court after 6-12-14 hearing in 7/27 NDIL.
Atty. Hussey-Scott then filed EX PARTE after IRS employee [Henline] had failed to comply with procedural rules [IRM 4.23.17.5.2 - effective 2-26-10 — that created a judicial-style “meet and confer” requirement with IRS group manager] — for any tax preparer penalty appeal cases] and after “due process” rules on IRS correspondence [IRM 4.4.7 — effective 9-22-2014] were being revised. Atty. Hussey-Scott failed to advise District Court about defendant [Victor M. Crown] status under IRS whistleblower rules taking effect on 8-12-14 and IRS summons was under 7-21-14 Supreme Court judgment on “good faith”. Atty. Hussey-Scott also failed to advise District Court about defendant’s affirmative legal rights in the Shakman federal case which provided legal right to file complaint until 12-16-14.
US SUPREME COURT - 1983 - United States v. Whiting Pools, Inc. 462 US 198 (1983) — property, whether tangible or intangible, levied upon pre-petition but not transferred before bankruptcy filing, is property of bankruptcy estate subject to turnover. Section 542 (a) of Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (Act) requires entity, other than custodian, in possession of property of debtor that trustee in bankruptcy can use, sell, or lease to deliver that property to the trustee.
IRM 5.9.5.5 (2) — The Service must expeditiously initiate actions to correct violations of automatic stay upon becoming aware that a collection action violated the stay. By doing so, the Service protects rights of debtor and shields Service from a suit for damages.
[See IRM 5.9.5.8 — effective 8-17-2016] — release of levy filed pre-petition [See IRM 5.9.5.9.1 — effective 8-17-2016] — NFTL lien in violation of stay. [See IRM 5.17.8.26 - effective 04-24-2015 — trustee power to avoid preferences 5 Time Frame for Corrective Actions. Corrective actions must be initiated expeditiously when the Service becomes aware that a levy payment has been received after the filing of a bankruptcy petition. The payment will be returned expeditiously to either the trustee, debtor, or the debtor-in-possession per local guidelines using Form 5792 [Request for iDRS Generated Refund]. 2. to qualify as a preference, a tax payment must: [a] be made while the taxpayer was insolvent; [b] be made on or within 90 days before the petition date; [c] be a payment outside the normal course of business and not made according to ordinary business terms; [d] be for an amount that is more than the: éreditor would have received in a Chapter 7 liquidation; and [e] be a payment on account of an antecedent debt (e.g., a late payment of tax). US SUPREME COURT — 1989 — United States v. Stuart [489 US 353, 359 (1989) which affirmed that IRS “need only demonstrate good faith in issuing the summons” and adhering to or complying with Powell factors: [1] that the investigation will be conducted pursuant to a legitimate purpose; [2] that the inquiry may be relevant to that purpose; [3] that the information sought is not already within IRS possession, and [4] that the administrative steps [compliance with the rules] required by the [Internal Revenue] Code have been followed.”
US SUPREME COURT — 1996 — Koon v. United States [518 US 81, 100 (1996) — “a District Court by definition abuses its discretion when it makes an error of law” — which can be applied to legal finding [determination] that legal motions filed by defendant after 6-30-2016 were “frivolous” when: [6] of them were in accord with District Court rules on privacy [LR 26.1]; [28] of them were in accord with US Supreme Court decisions affecting the legal sufficiency of tax preparer case; and any of the other, non-germane motions apply to allowable reimbursement under 26 USC 7430 which are covered under the 5-3-2007 executive committee order.
US SUPREME COURT — 2014— United States v. Clarke [573 US — decided 6-19- 2014 which ruled that affected taxpayers can challenge IRS summons action in federal district court when they can show tax agency might have issued summons
in bad faith. US v. Clarke et al, US Supreme Court [No 13-301] [6-19-2014]. “A taxpayer has right to conduct examination of IRS officials regarding reasons for issuing summons when he points to specific facts or circumstances plausibly raising inference of bad faith and applied to IRS failure to comply with its own rules. [Note: the opinion in this case was/is subject to formal revision before publication in the preliminary print of the United States Reports.]. The decision entered in this case asserted that “. . .Congress made enforcement of an IRS summons contingent on a court’s approval. See 26 USC 7604(b). And we have time and again stated that the requisite judicial proceeding is not EX PARTE but adversarial. See Donaldson v. United States, 400 US 517, 527 (1971); Powell, 379 US at 58; Reisman, 375 US at 446. The summoned party must receive notice, and may present argument and evidence on all matters bearing on a summons’s validity. See Powell, 379 US at 58. The entire proceeding then [to enforce an IRS summons in District Court was initiated in direct violation of a Supreme Court decision on 6-19-14 [un-published] which was decided 30 days before filing [docketing] of the tax preparer injunction case on 7-18-14 against Appellant and a non-party defendant [Lourdes Theodossis Estate] that dormant. The tax preparer case was then developed into continuing illegality [saga] by DOJ [Hussey-Scott, Applegate] and IRS employees [Carver][Henline][Miller] with their failure to comply with 5" amendment [“due process’ ] and IRS procedural rules. This is then, an invited [manufactured] error that was created by DOJ illegality during the civil case, which does not leave Appellee legal options on this appeal since DOJ and IRS set up initial error at [District Court] and then waived defense at the 7"" Circuit — at the same time IRS was failing to follow its own rules on required legal notices. The District Court then perpetuated mistake by continuing [extending] filing restrictions and prolonging civil case after DOJ counsel admitted “error” on 8-1-17 and concealing the failure of IRS employee Shauna Henline [technical advisor] to comply with IRM 4.23.17.5.2 [effective 02-26-2010] [meet and confer] rules in tax preparer appeal case; IRM 8.11.3 [effective 9-24-2013] [with implementation of judicial approach - policy]; and IRM 4.4.7 [effective 9-22- 2014] [correspondence and closing letters]; and the failure of IRS employee Rick Miller [revenue officer] to comply with IRM [bankruptcy] IRS employees are supposed to adhere to the IRS Code [procedural rules] but in my case they are systemically violating their own administrative manual by placing or setting $7.2
million in civil penalties from an “illegal” case filed by Obama DOJ in violation of a US Supreme Court judgment affecting “bad faith” entered on 7-21-2014.
DOJ attorneys are supposed to enforce Supreme Court decisions and legal mandates entered by the 7" Circuit Court of Appeals — not violate them.
26 USC 7604 (b) — enforcement of summons — is required to be conducted in an adversarial proceeding — which means the [DOJ/IRS] summons is improper [illegal] if it was obtained after EX PARTE proceeding — since the defendant [Victor M. Crown] can establish “bad faith” by IRS failing to comply with its own rules [Powell factors] and failure to adhere to IRM 4.23.17.5.2 [effective 02-26-2010] [In USA v. Victor Crown] — IRS employee [Henline] intentionally acted in “bad faith” by failing to comply with agency rules affecting tax preparer penalty cases] and DOJ obstructed an evidentiary hearing [in civil/criminal case] to establish the motivation of IRS employees by unethical EX PARTE legal motion on 8-11-14. The Ex Parte filing created a “due process” violation under Hovey v. Elliott [1897] since DOJ failed to inform district judge that: [a] the IRS employee involved in case failed to comply with IRS “due process” rules [Henline]; [b] at least 3 IRS employees intentionally violated EX PARTE rules after 9-18-13; [c] another IRS revenue officer violated IRS rules on collection [Miller]; and [d] that the EX PARTE hearing request may have been filed in order to prevent defendant from exercising administrative appeal rights under IRS rules [IRM 4.4.7 — effective 9-22- 14] and proving up a breach of Administrative Procedure Act on IRS waivers provided on 1-31-13 [2012] and 2-27-14 [2013] to prepare tax returns and obtain financial judgments for 3 party defendant [Lourdes Theodossis Estate] that had been legally severed from civil case under 11-1-13 IRS letter by Shauna Henline.
The petitioner [Victor M. Crown] then has a legal right to ask District Court to adhere to legal doctrine of STARE DECESIS and precedents set by US Supreme Court and to establish intentional “bad faith” by Department of Justice in the tax preparer case and assert a “non-frivolous” basis for 37 motions filed in District Court after 6-30-2016 that were considered “frivolous” by Chief Judge Castillo and legal motions on enforcement covered under 5-3-07 Executive Committee order.
EXHIBIT The 7" Circuit CA panel and the District Court is then advised that IRS has now issued interim rules affecting abatement of interest which would be under the legal jurisdiction of United States Tax Court which took legal effect on 3-26-2018.

EXHIBIT — FEDERAL LAW
26 USC 7604 (b) — enforcement of summons — is required to be conducted in an adversarial proceeding — which means the [DOJ/IRS] summons is improper [illegal] if obtained after EX PARTE proceeding — since defendant [Victor M. Crown] can establish “bad faith” by IRS failing to comply with its own rules [Powell factors] and failure to adhere to IRM 4.23.17.5.2 [effective 02-26-2010] [In USA v. Victor Crown] — because IRS employee [Henline] intentionally acted in “bad faith” by failing to comply with rules affecting tax preparer penalty cases] and DOJ obstructed an evidentiary hearing [in civil/criminal case] to establish motivation of IRS employees benefiting from illegal EX PARTE motion of 8-11-14. The Ex Parte filing created a “due process” violation under Hovey v. Elliott [1897] since DOJ failed to inform district judge that: [a] the IRS employee involved in case failed to comply with IRS “due process” rules [Henline]; [b] at least 3 IRS employees intentionally violated EX PARTE rules after 9-18-13; [c] another IRS revenue officer violated IRS rules on collection [Miller]; and [d] the EX PARTE hearing request could have been filed in order to prevent defendant from exercising administrative appeal rights under IRS rules [IRM 4.4.7 — effective 9-22- 14] and proving up a breach of Administrative Procedure Act on IRS waivers provided on 1-31-13 [2012] and 2-27-14 [2013] to prepare tax returns and obtain financial judgments for 3 party defendant [Lourdes Theodossis Estate] that had been legally severed from civil case under 11-1-13 IRS letter by Shauna Henline.
