61 – 0

That’s the score in the epic battle between Larry Harvey and Randall Preheim. Mr. Harvey has represented 61 taxpayers who resided in Antarctica and wanted to take the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. Mr. Preheim represented the IRS.

Antarctica is still not a continent, and it’s 61 losses and counting for Mr. Harvey. Joe Kristan likens this to the battle between the Roadrunner and Wile Coyote. I liken it to the Washington Generals, who achieved an enviable record of 6 wins to 13,000 losses.

I hear the Generals are due for a win soon….

Cases: Role v. Commissioner, McDonald v. Commissioner, and Owens v. Commissioner
