United States v. Evers (case)

United States v. Evers was a legal case concerning the processing of military retirement pay through the federal tax system. The government argued that Evers, a retired service member, had an obligation to pay taxes on his military retirement benefits. The case examined whether the government could withhold taxes from these benefits and the legal authority to do so. Ultimately, the case clarified the government's authority to collect taxes from military retirement pay, emphasizing that such benefits are subject to federal income tax laws, and reinforcing procedural and statutory rights related to tax collection from retired military personnel.
