Précis: In its Reply the Crown pleaded that the taxpayer had been involved in criminal activity for which he was charged and convicted. The taxpayer moved to strike the impugned portions of the Reply. The taxpayer was modestly successful in that two paragraphs were struck that were pleadings of argument, and not fact. In addition one paragraph detailing the sentence the taxpayer received in the criminal proceeding was struck. The balance of the impugned pleading was not struck. There was no order as to costs.
