8-WEEK REMOTE NONATTORNEY PRE-EXAM REVIEW
September | October | 2021
Limited Enrollment
Our 2021 Judicial Speaker, the Honorable Judge John F. Dean, is a former Special Trial Judge of the U.S. Tax Court. He has distinguished himself as the only former U.S. Tax Court Special Trial Judge ever to oversee nonattorney bar preparation and practice in the history of the Court. For the last six years, he has served as a judicial educator who prepares federally authorized tax practitioners to pass the Nonattorney Examination and engage in trial and litigation practice. His judicial guidance and insight has contributed to the skills-set currently held by IRS enrolled agent and CPA bar applicants who subsequently were admitted to practice in the Court. Judge Dean was appointed Dean of Faculty at the Tax Law Institute in 2021.
Professor Joni Larson is a celebrated legal author. She team-teaches with Judge Dean the Extended Tax Court Bar Review for three hours every Saturday to instruct nonattorney exam applicants in test-taking techniques. She also leads the course in Tax Evidence based upon evidentiary principles and applications cited in her latest book, the second edition of A Practitioner's Guide to Tax Evidence: A Primer on the Federal Rules of Evidence As Applied by the Tax Court. She has remarkable recall and command of the IRC as well as an intimate knowledge of case law, published opinions, and rules of practice and procedure.
Our 2021 Guest Speaker, Professor T. Keith Fogg directs Harvard Law School's Federal Tax Clinic at the Legal Services Center where he serves as a clinical professor of law. He joined the Harvard faculty in 2017 after teaching at Villanova Law School for a decade. He got the tax clinic at Harvard off the ground in 2015 and 2016 while serving as a visiting professor. Prior to teaching at Villanova he worked for over 30 years with the Office of Chief Counsel, IRS. He is a national authority on tax procedure. He co-authors a blog, procedurallytaxing.com, which focuses on current tax procedure issues.
