From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

1946 United States Supreme Court case

Commissioner v. Wilcox, 327 U.S. 404 (1946), was a case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States .[1]

The issue presented in this case was whether embezzled money constituted taxable income to the embezzler under § 22(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1939 .

Although the Court ruled that the embezzlement income was not taxable to the embezzler in Wilcox, the Court later overruled the decision in _James v. United States _.
