Petitioners filed a supplement to their motion to restrain collection attaching a copy of their 1990 amended return. Petitioners also filed a response to respondent's objection in which they contend that their amended return for 1990 serves to bar respondent from attempting to collect the tax that 2 At the time the petition was filed, petitioners resided at Las Vegas, Nevada.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next
