OTR: Tax Law, Arkansas

Last class we filled out evaluations:

Professor A: “Thank you for filling out my teaching evaluations. They are being evaluated by the Afghanistan election commission so it’s going to take some time to get a result…”

Professor A, who practices at a fancy firm downtown, gives us practice tips:

Professor A: “Today’s practice tip: You can’t expect all of your clients to like you. You can only hope that they respect you.”

The professor then told us about a news story where a policeman’s wife had an affair with a doctor. The policeman found out, lured the doctor to his house, threatened to sue, and then demanded $150,000. The doctor gave the policeman $25,000, which did not constitute a gift.

Professor A: “The newspaper story did not say what the basis of the policeman’s threatened suit would be…but then again, only people from Arkansas know what their law is.”
