This legal document, a letter from the law firm Zuckerman Spaeder LLP to Judge William H. Pauley, III, dated March 7, 2013, argues for a lower sentencing guideline for their client, Mr. Parse. The firm contends that since Mr. Parse was only convicted of three "backdating" transactions, sentencing enhancements for "sophisticated means" and "special skills" are unwarranted, as he did not design the underlying complex tax shelters. The letter provides a total loss calculation of $3,807,988 based on IRS assessments related to the transactions.
