IRS Outrage Case Filed by 12 Year Old Against Government
A Bridgeport Post clipping reports Edith Inge Smith, age 12, suing President Nixon and many officials in U.S. District Court over IRS seizures tied to the Construction Survey Cooperative. She seeks nearly $29,000 and $750,000 in damages for alleged illegally confiscated property and business losses. The suit challenges the cooperative’s tax history and cites a 1964 Labor ruling. The IRS planned to auction seized merchandise on July 17 amid ongoing questions about employment status and self employment for cooperative workers.
