Barrister
And how long have you been so employed?
Witness
I've been a revenue agent for about three years.
Barrister
And could you give the members of the jury some idea of your educational background that you achieved before you were employed by the Internal Revenue Service?
Witness
I have a bachelor's degree in economics from the College of William and Mary.
Barrister
Now, once you were employed by the Internal Revenue Service, did you receive any training to assist you in your duties?
Witness
Yes, I did. I started out as a tax auditor. I was a tax auditor for eleven years. During the course of my employment with Internal Revenue Service, I've received diversity facility training, I've had advanced corporation training, I've had expert witness training, quality process improvement training.
Barrister
Now, during the course of your employment with the Internal Revenue Service, have you been required to learn what the filing requirements are for various individuals?
Witness
Yes, I have.
Barrister
Why is that? Why do you need to know that?
Witness
We need to know what the filing requirements are in order to determine, number one, whether we should request a tax return from someone who has not filed. Also, when we publicize during filing season, we need to be able to tell people who needs to worry about filing a tax return and who doesn't
Barrister
Do the filing requirements change from year to year?
Witness
Yes, they do.
Barrister
Now, have you prepared some charts to assist the jury with your testimony regarding the filing requirements for 1989 and 1990?
Witness
Yes, I have.
Barrister
I'd like to show those to you. They're Exhibit S-7.
