Estate Planning Under the 2010 Tax Relief ActLewis Rice
On December 17, 2010, President Obama signed the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Authorization & Job Creation Act of 2010 (the “2010 Tax Relief Act”) into law. The 2010 Tax Relief Act provides temporary estate and gift tax guidance for the next two years. It increases the estate, gift and generation-skipping tax exemption amounts to $5 million and reduces the estate tax rate to 35%.
Landlords & tenants managing through distressWithum
The COVID-19 pandemic has been, for better or worse, a transformative time for businesses undergoing disruption to everyday operations. As trends in office space and locations shift on a large scale, tenants are seeking ways to circumvent existing leases. The demand for rent concessions grows as tenants consider their options in the face of losses and even bankruptcy.
Tenant distress puts a strain on landlords. Whether strict in their terms or accommodating of tenants’ needs, landlords should be well-versed in their protections under the law. Meanwhile, shortfalls in rent payments and obstacles with reopening guidelines pose landlords with struggles of their own.
What can landlords and tenants alike do in the face of these obstacles as the pandemic and economic downturn continue? What trends and innovations can be adopted to help businesses succeed in the face of distress? What is predicted to come next?
Join William Kinney, member of Withum’s Real Estate Services Team; Donald Clarke, Bankruptcy and Restructuring Attorney at Wasserman, Jurista & Stolz; and Ken DeGraw, leader of Withum’s Financial Distress and Recovery Services Team, for this multifaceted discussion.

As noted in the Washington Report discussing the Morrissette case, the IRS has been arguing in all of the audits of single premium generational split-dollar arrangements that they could not use the economic benefit regime of the Final Split-Dollar Regulations, because they provided "other benefits" to the trust which owned the policy.

Re: Tax Treatment of Lottery Winnings
Facts
You won $2,000,000 in the state lottery. The lottery pays out the prize money in 20 annual
installments of $100,000 each. After receiving three $100,000 installments ($300,000), you
sold the remaining $1,700,000 for $1,000,000. You want to report the $1,000,000 as long-
term capital gain, on which the tax rate is 15%, rather than reporting it as ordinary income, on
which you would be required to pay your 35% marginal tax rate.
Issue
The issues are (1) whether lottery winnings can be taxed at the long-term capital gains tax
rate, and (2) whether selling the right to the cash flow from the winnings for a lump sum after
owning the right to such cash flow for more than one year qualifies for long-term capital
gains tax treatment.
Rule
Lottery rights are not a capital asset, and selling those rights, even after holding them for over
one year, falls under the “substitute for ordinary income doctrine, which provides that when a
party receives a lump sum payment as essentially a substitute for what would otherwise be
received at a future time as ordinary income, that lump sum payment is taxable as ordinary
income as well.” R.W. Womack v. Comm’r, 510 F. 3d 1295 (11th Cir. 2007).
Analysis
It is well established that Lottery rights are not a capital asset. Watkins v. Comm’r, 447 F. 3d
1269 (10th Cir. 2006); Lattera v. Comm’r, 437 F. 3d 399 (3d Cir. 2006), cert. denied, 127 S.
Ct. 1328 (2007); United States v. Maginnis, 356 F. 3d 1179 (9th Cir. 2004); Davis v. Comm’r,
119 T.C. 1 (2002). Although 26 U.S.C. §1221 defines Capital Asset quite broadly, and does
not specifically except lottery winnings from the definition, the 11th Circuit has found that
“the statutory definition of capital asset has never been read as broadly as the statutory
language might seem to permit, because such a reading would encompass some things
Congress did not intend to be taxed as capital gains.” Womack, 510 F.3d 1295; Maginnis, 356
F.3d at 1181;. All of these decisions are based on the so-called substitute for ordinary income
doctrine, which provides that when a party receives a lump sum payment as “essentially a
substitute for what would otherwise be received at a future time as ordinary income, that
lump sum payment is taxable as ordinary income as well.” Comm’r v. P.G. Lake, Inc., 356
U.S. 260, 265, 78 S. Ct. 691, 694 (1958). Womack, 510 F.3d 1295. The courts have focused
on two significant factors in determining that lottery rights are not a capital asset and,
therefore, the sale of such asset would not constitute a long term capital gain:
1. The taxpayer did not make any underlying investment of capital in return for the receipt of
the lottery right, and
2. The sale of the right did not reflect an accretion in value over cost to any underlying asset
held by t ...
