Supreme Court rules private offices need warrants for IRS searches
The Supreme Court unanimously held Internal Revenue agents may not search a taxpayer's private office without a warrant to seize property for tax assessments. It also ruled that cars left in open parking areas may be seized without violating privacy. The Utah case involves G M Leasing Corp and its general manager George S Norman Jr. who was convicted in Denver. IRS says he owes about 1.1 million in back taxes. Agents seized company cars and, with locksmiths, removed furnishings from the cottage office in Salt Lake County. The firm sued for wrongful levy, return of autos, suppression of evidence, and damages.
