A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati has ordered the Internal Revenue Service to produce information about tax-exempt applications for a tea party lawsuit over targeting of conservative groups. The panel rejected a request by government attorneys to block a federal judge's order to turn over lists of applicants allegedly singled out for unfavorable treatment because of their politics. The panel says laws meant to protect taxpayers do not entitle the agency to keep secret documents that can show mistreatment of taxpayers and applicant groups.
