Well, I was thinking that a CDPH was part of any checklist that one had to complete before bringing a suit, like you said. I really think it is only a formality, as I have yet to hear of the IRS or any state taxing agency changing their plans or agendas, because you had a so-called 'due process' hearing with them.

As for paying up first, then seeking remedy, no way! That is yet another way of admitting that you are owing and under their jurisdiction.

I'm trying to decide if I want to waste some of my long distance minutes on a phone call to the other side of the continent for a meeting that will probably not change a thing just to get this marked off of my checklist, in case I want to bring suit later.

Even then, I STILL don't have any names, besides the name of the guy running the whole organization.
