UNITED STATES
v.
ZSCHACH CONST. CO. ET AL.

10th Cir. | 1954-01-11
No. 4714
209 F.2d 347 United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit (1954) Caution
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

This appeal involves withholding and employment tax liability for the years 1948 and 1949.

The question is whether the court erred in failing to hold Pool Construction Company, the Western Casualty and Surety Company, the North American Casualty and Surety Reinsurance Corporation, and the Excess Insurance Company of America secondarily liable for the unpaid taxes of Zschach Construction Company to the extent of the amounts it deducted from its employees and then failed to pay over to the government.

It is conceded that this case is indistinguishable in fact or in law from that of United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co. v. United States, 10 Cir., 1952, 201 F. 2d 118. The government, however, contends that our conclusions in that case are erroneous and asks us to reexamine the question and overrule our former decision. Suffice it to say we have given further consideration to the question presented and a majority of the court adheres to the views expressed in our former decision. The judgment appealed from is, therefore, Affirmed on authority of United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co. v. United States, 10 Cir., 201 F. 2d 118. See, also, General Casualty Co. of America v. United States. 5 Cir., 205 F. 2d 758.
