Makransky's Estate v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit
Makransky's Estate v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, 154 F.2d 59 (3d Cir. 1946)
Maris, Goodrich, and O'connell, Circuit Judges

Makransky's Estate v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In these cases the taxpayers ask this court to review the finding of the Tax Court that a loss which they incurred in the sale of contracts for the future delivery of wool was a loss upon the sale of capital assets and not an ordinary and necessary expense of their business deductible under Section 23(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C.A. Int.Rev.Code, § 23(a), or a loss deductible under Section 23(e). We think that this is a finding which this court is not at liberty to review. Dobson v. Commissioner, 1943, 320 U.S. 489, 64 S.Ct. 239, 88 L.Ed. 248; John Kelley Co. v. Commissioner, 1946, 66 S.Ct. 299.

The decision of the Tax Court is affirmed.
