GOODRICH v. EDWARDS, UNITED STATES COLLECTOR OF INTERNAL REVENUE FOR THE SECOND DISTRICT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Supreme Court of United States.

Decided March 28, 1921.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mr. William D. Guthrie, with whom Mr. Langdon P. Marvin, Mr. Henry M. Ward, Mr. Herbert Pope and Mr. Rush C. Butler were on the briefs, for plaintiff in error:

The Solicitor General for defendant in error:

Mr. Hoke Smith and Mr. T.P. Gore, by leave of court, filed a brief as amici curiae.

MR. JUSTICE CLARKE delivered the opinion of the court.

The plaintiff in error sued the defendant, a collector of Internal Revenue, to recover income taxes assessed in 1920 for the year 1916 and paid under protest to avoid penalties. A demurrer to the complaint was sustained and the constitutional validity of a law of the United States is so involved, that the case is properly here by writ of error. Towne v. Eisner, 245 U.S. 418
