Case No. 16-1974

Beverly Gardiner Nance
v.
Iowa Department of Revenue

The petitioner unsuccessfully sought judicial review following the denial of her request for a partial refund of an inheritance tax payment. She argued the distribution of a decedent’s assets pursuant to a Family Settlement Agreement (FSA) should govern the imposition of inheritance taxes if the FSA was made in good faith and not for the purpose of avoiding taxes. The court of appeals reversed and remanded and the Iowa Department of Revenue sought further review.
