Ruling On Scientology Case Favors IRS |
The Church of Scientology should hand over stacks of financial documents to the Internal Revenue Service, which is studying whether to deny the organization tax-exempt status, a federal magistrate says. The IRS says it has information indicating the Clearwater-based Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization has been involved in commercial operations that should be taxed. The inquiry concerns 1985, 1986 and 1987. |

Board of Contributors: The Judges of History Rule |
Verbatim quotation, the judge believed, was justified in order to prove points the author had asserted about Mr. Hubbard -- mendacity, bigotry, paranoia and other unlovely traits that could not be persuasively demonstrated without use of Mr. Hubbard's own words. "The biographer/critic," Judge Leval wrote, "should not be required simply to express . . . conclusions without defending them by example." In such circumstances, free-speech interests outweighed the interests of the copyright owner. |
