Assignment 1
After a lucrative career on Broadway and as an astrologer, your client decides to change careers and open up a tax preparation service called “Tax by the Stars.” He has no formal tax training. He wants to know the following:
What does he have to file with the IRS to be able to prepare tax returns for his family as a favor?
What does he have to file with the IRS to be able to prepare tax returns for paying clients?
What rules will he be subject to in his new business?
After several years preparing tax returns by the stars, he comes back to you for more advice. He says that was caught completely unaware but the IRS seems to disagree with what the stars told him his clients and family should report on their tax returns. Rather than leave things to fate, he has assured his clients that he will represent them in their audits. He asks your advice on the following:
What does he have to do to be able to represent his clients during their audits?
What regulatory rules will he be subject to?
Your client continues and tells you that he has a deep distrust (and slightly concerning obsession) with the American Bar Association (“ABA”) and wants nothing to do with it. He says that he went did not become a lawyer simply so that he won’t be subject to the ABA’s model rules. He wants you to reassure him that his strategy will be successful and he won’t ever be subject to ABA rules in a tax practice because he is not a lawyer.
Your client requests that you please write a memo addressing his six questions. Citation to statutes and case law is not necessary, but can make your memo more complete, earning you a bigger fee.

Part 2: Drafting a Complaint for intentional torts
You work as a paralegal in a personal injury practice located in the hypothetical state of New Manitoba. Rwanda McDonald walks into the office and asks to speak to you and an attorney. At the meeting, Rwanda tells you the following:
So, last Friday I was hanging out and, all of a sudden, this guy comes up to me and grabs my purse which I was wearing and starts running away. So, I ran after him. He picks up a rock and just throws it at me. So I duck and it misses me. But, sadly for him, I am a two time World Cup sprinting medalist and I tracked him down, in 8 seconds. I grabbed my pocketbook back and he starts yelling at me and says “You stupid b—-, drop dead!” I was really hurt inside. I turned around and went home. When I got home, I realized that my wallet had fallen out of the purse while he was running with it, and I lost the wallet, which had $60 in cash and many other important personal items.
Rwanda then tells you that she later found out that the guy’s name is Christopher Stone. She also makes it 100% clear that she wants to sue Mr. Stone for every cause of action you can think of.
You are asked to please draft the complaint to be filed in state court. Assume that the state court had jurisdiction over the case based on Rule 1.1 of the New Manitoba State rules of litigation.
Please draft an appropriate complaint, making sure to allege as many causes of action as can be reasonably alleged. You should use a sample complaint from the “documents” page on the student website. However, realize that the torts and elements are different in this case than in that document.

Assignment 2
You are working in house for a large peanut butter manufacturer as part of the CFO’s office. Your company opened a division to trade in virtual currency, called “peanut BITter.” Your company is also highly litigious and often sues state and local governments for refunds of taxes it pays to them. One day, the CEO of the company, Mrs. Total E. Nutt, runs into your office screaming that you have to get $50,000 of Amazon gift cards to give to the IRS. After calming her down, she explains that she just got a call in her office and the caller stated that the company owes $50,000 in Federal taxes and the IRS is on the way to the office and will seize control of the company unless the company pays $50,000 in Amazon gift cards TODAY! She asks you to draft a paragraph advising her what to do.
Shortly after that, your company receives a letter from the IRS (Letter 6173) stating that the IRS has knowledge of the company’s virtual currency dealings and suspects that the company has not complied with its tax obligations. The letter instructs the company to reply with a response that is signed under the penalties of perjury. After sending in the letter, your company is informed by the IRS that it Is opening an audit of the company. The IRS spends six months pouring over peanut BITter’s books and records, and determines a deficiency of $59 million dollars and the company pays the deficiency. Six months later, the IRS contacts your company again and says that it received an information return from a state that amended the amount of a taxable refund given to the company, and the IRS adjusted the company’s tax accordingly. Mr. Nutt blows into your office and starts hollering that the IRS is hounding his wife’s business. While his tirade was only semi coherent, you extrapolated the following points:
How did the IRS select his wife’s business for audit?
Was the IRS allowed to audit the business after sending Letter 6173?
Was the IRS allowed to adjust the tax due in response to the information return from the state?
Would the IRS be allowed to come and examine the company’s books and records a second time?
The CFO tells you that you probably should put together answers to Mr. Nutt’s questions, and suggests that you append them to the paragraph you drafted regarding the phone call demanding Amazon gift cards. Citations to statutes and regulations are not required. However, the company holiday party is coming and your boss tells you that the more you are able to support your answers, the more entries into the company raffle you’ll get.
