Chris and Kimberley Strayve are resolutely standing up for the law, despite recently hearing from the IRS that one of their claims for refund of money withheld but not owed is being held up.  The reason given for the holdup is, in its essence, precisely the same as that given in all of the various attempts the government has made to discourage CtC-educated Americans who have inconveniently learned-- and invoked-- the law over the last several years; but the Strayves enjoy the distinction of being the first of whom I am aware to have that reason plainly expressed.

Chris and Kimberly are not being subjected to an obnoxious response suggesting that their filing is being misunderstood, as is discussed in 'The Empire Whiffs Back- Strike One'; nor the blustery "frivolous" ploy discussed in 'The Empire Whiffs Back- Strike Two', by which the IRS hopes to intimidate a target into abandoning the law and returning to four-legged status.  Instead, they're being told the real reason in stark black-and-white.

CtC Warrior Darrell Williams-- whose refund last autumn of $3,785.00 seized by federal "levy" was accompanied by a letter declaring that despite the return of his money, the government's records still indicated that he owed over $14,000 in unpaid taxes (see www.losthorizons.com/tax/Misunderstandings/AllUpperCase.htm)-- has just received a formal acknowledgement that although he earned over $26,000.00 last year, his total amount of "income" received was only $36.00.
