Robertson, of the Will of Hand
v.
United States
v.
United States
No. 87-1800.
Supreme Court of the United States.
Oct 11, 1988.
Lead Opinion
C. A. 6th Cir. Certiorari denied.
Dissent
Justice Blackmun,
with whom
Justice O’Connor joins, dissenting.This case concerns the deductibility, under §§ 170 and 2055 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, 26 U. S. C. §§ 170 and 2055, of a testamentary disposition to a nonprofit cemetery, which enjoys tax-exempt status under § 501(c)(13) of the Code. The Solicitor General concedes that such a donation is deductible for federal income tax purposes, but he resists deductibility for federal estate tax purposes. Whether this distinction is legally sound is, I feel, an issue deserving plenary consideration by this Court.
I therefore dissent and would grant the petition for a writ of certiorari. I adhere to the reasons set forth by Justice O’Con-nor in her opinion (which Justice Powell and I joined) dissenting from the denial of certiorari in Mellon Bank, N. A. v. United States, 475 U. S. 1032 (1986).
