                CIVIL APPEAL STATEMENT OF PARTIES AND ISSUES filed by Attorney Mr. Cameron Thomas Norris for Appellant John Doe. Is this case a cross-appeal? No ; Has this case or a related one been before this court previously? No ; Please identify the party(ies) the appeal is being taken against: IRS, TREA and USA ; Issues: This appeal arises from a challenge to the IRS's determination of Plaintiff-Appellant John Doe's whistleblower awards under IRC ?7623(a) and to the IRS guidance and regulations governing whistleblower awards. The district court dismissed the challenge in part for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction and in part for failure to state a claim. Doe will argue that he has standing for all the relief he seeks, that the awards, guidance, and regulations are judicially reviewable, and that his complaint plausibly states claims for relief on the merits. .
