Description

This is a Bivens case*fn* filed initially against the Internal Revenue Service and certain of its agents for allegedly violating the plaintiffs' First and Fifth Amendment rights by denying tax-exempt status to the Ecclesiastical Order of the Ism of Am, Inc. On a prior appeal this court affirmed the district court's dismissal of the IRS, but the case was remanded for further proceedings with respect to the then-unknown agents. Ecclesiastical Order of the Ism of Am, Inc. v. Internal Revenue Service, 725 F.2d 398 (6th Cir. 1984). On remand, the plaintiffs were permitted to file amended complaints naming individual defendants and seeking damages of $5 million. The district court then dismissed the action, on defendants' motion, for failure to state a claim, 653 F. Supp. 1200. We shall affirm the judgment.
