PHOENIX, May 16, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Stenson Tamaddon, a firm offering
technology-enabled financial solutions that provide accurate and
compliant tax credit filings, today announced that it has initiated
a lawsuit in the Federal District Court against the United States
Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the
United States of America, the U.S. Department of the
Treasury, IRS Commissioner Daniel
Werfel, and Treasury Secretary Janet
Yellen. The lawsuit seeks declaratory and injunctive relief
and a writ of mandamus.
In the complaint, Stenson Tamaddon alleges that the
IRS violated the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) by enacting
legislative rules without following proper procedures, specifically
concerning "Notice 2021-20." This notice significantly restricted
the availability of Employee Retention Credit (ERC) payouts by
narrowing the eligibility criteria. Furthermore, the lawsuit argues
that the IRS' suspension of the ERC program was unauthorized and
that the rate of abuse within the program does not justify a
complete cessation.
"We believe that the IRS has overstepped its authority and
failed to follow proper procedures, resulting in unfair
restrictions on businesses entitled to the Employee Retention
Credit," explained Eric Stenson, CEO
of Stenson Tamaddon. "Our goal is to ensure that these businesses
receive the support they deserve, this litigation is a last
resort."
The lawsuit contends that the IRS violated the major questions
doctrine, acted arbitrarily and capriciously, and failed to adhere
to specific statutes. Stenson Tamaddon seeks a writ of mandamus to
compel the IRS to resume processing refund claims, which would be a
positive development for their clients. The company is committed to
ensuring that the rights of businesses seeking ERC payouts are
upheld and that the IRS is held accountable for its actions.
