Glass v. Commissioner
About This Legal Opinion
The Tax Court opinion was very thorough, included a review of the legislative history of 170(h), and held for the donors on every count, that the easements met the 170(h)(4) conservation purposes tests and the 170(h)(5) requirement to hold the easement 'exclusively for conservation purposes.'
