Report: Scientology Settles With IRS December 30, 1997,
NEW YORK (AP) _ The Church of Scientology paid the Internal Revenue Service $12.5 million as part of a settlement of a long-standing dispute with the tax agency, The Wall Street Journal reported today.
Details of the 1993 settlement, which helped secure the tax-exempt status of the main Scientology church, previously had not been released.
The details included the church's agreement to drop thousands of lawsuits against the IRS and to stop assisting others in other lawsuits against the agency based on claims before the Oct. 1, 1993, settlement date, the Journal said.
