\\nThis week we look at the issue of legal fees and settlement, and the tax status of such. We\'ll look at the result in the \\n\\nHauge case where a taxpayer and the partnership she owned virtually all of the interests in settled the same legal dispute with quite different tax consequences.\\n

\\nI am going to be speaking this week in Columbus, Ohio on Thursday and have a pretty full day Friday, so we may be late getting next week\'s podcast up--but we\'ll try and get it up on time.\\n
