CERTIORARI TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF
APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

Syllabus

A taxpayer who, in his income tax return for 1928, reported income from sale of property according to the deferred payment method, although he might have used the installment method, is not entitled, upon a claim for refund, after the time for filing the return has expired, to have the income computed according to the installment method, at least where it is not shown that the deferred payment method, rightly applied, does not clearly reflect his income. P. 192.

91 F.2d 590 affirmed.

Certiorari, 302 U.S. 679, to review the affirmance of a judgment rejecting a claim for refund of income taxes.
