Facts
The IRS was investigating two taxpayers for violating federal tax laws in the 1970s. Each suspect contacted their accountants for their tax returns and financial information and had them sent to their attorneys.
When the IRS learned about the attorneys being in possession of the suspects' tax and financial data, the IRS legal department served subpoena duces tecum (document production request) on the attorneys.Resources
