| Question presented | In Re Aaron Eriksson, PetitionerWhether the Commissioner of Internal Revenue has a clear and indisputable ministerial duty, enforceable by writ of mandamus, to administer the federal tax laws in a manner that does not violate Petitioner ’ s rights under the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment (and the Fourth, Fifth, Ninth, and Tenth Amendments) by conditioning the deductibility of charitable contributions and the tax-exempt status of churches upon mandatory disclosure and reporting requirements that directly conflict with Petitioner ’ s sincerely held religious belief and Christ ’ s command to give alms in secret (Matthew 6:1 — 4). | Wilson Alejandro Montoya, Petitioner v. Texasthat a state affirmative defense was available concerning petitioner's lack of knowledge in distinguishing between a security misrepresentation and an agreement, and that a federal circuit already made a favorable opinion? |
| Summary | In Re Aaron Eriksson, PetitionerAaron Eriksson asks the Supreme Court to order the IRS to administer tax laws without reporting rules he says conflict with his religious belief in giving secretly. He argues that requiring disclosures for charitable-contribution deductions and churches’ tax-exempt status burdens his religious rights. | Wilson Alejandro Montoya, Petitioner v. TexasWilson Alejandro Montoya asked the Supreme Court to review his Texas convictions, arguing that his lawyer failed to explain how his guilty plea to securities fraud could affect related theft and money-laundering charges, making the plea unknowing and involuntary. He also argues Texas law gave him a defense based on his claimed lack of knowledge about whether the conduct was a securities misrepresentation or an agreement. |
