IRS moves Amishman closer to losing home
Amishman Ed Lee faces a roughly 30000 dollar IRS lien that could seize his 25 acre farm. Attorneys Caiazza and Gardner seek a federal restraining order, arguing tax issues may require court jurisdiction only after Lee pays and a refund is denied. Multiple options including a surety bond or letter of credit are discussed to delay seizures while litigation proceeds.
