Tax Appeals Upheld By Lords In Vestey Case London May 7
The House of Lords upheld appeals by the executors of the late Vestey and his brother against judgments related to income tax and surtax assessments. The dispute centered on rents of 41.2 million pounds tied to a deed of settlement involving the Vesteys and Union Cold Storage, funds held in Paris for their descendants. The Crown contends the Vesteys owed income tax from 1938 to 1980 and surtax from 1937 to 1981 on these sums.
