Intuit Inc., the owner of TurboTax, has agreed to pay $141 million for deceiving consumers into paying for tax services that should have been free. All 50 states and the District of Columbia have signed onto the settlement which was led by Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slatery and New York Attorney General Letitia James. About 111,000 Tennessee consumers will be eligible to receive payments of about $30 for each year during tax years 2016-2018 they used a paid TurboTax product when they qualified to file free through the IRS program. An investigation into Intuit was initiated following a ProPublica report that showed the company was using deceptive digital tactics to steer low-income consumers toward its commercial products and away from federally-supported free tax services.

Robby Starbuck, a former candidate for Tennessee’s 5th Congressional District, this week filed suit against the state Republican Party, claiming it illegally removed him from its primary ballot, the Tennessean reports. The party’s executive committee voted to remove Starbuck and fellow candidates Morgan Ortagus and Baxter Lee after finding the three did not meet Republican “bona fides.” Starbuck claims that vote was conducted secretly and against the party's own bylaws in a manner "inconsistent with federal and state law." He is asking the court for an injunction that would stop his official removal from the primary ballot.

The U.S. Supreme Court last week agreed to review a request for DNA testing of evidence from death row inmate Rodney Reed, The Hill reports. Reed was convicted in the 1996 murder of Stacey Stites in Bastrop County, Texas. He has maintained his innocence and has long sought genetic testing of items found at the crime scene. The technical issue before the high court deals with when the window closed for Reed to request DNA testing. Lower federal courts are divided on whether the clock begins when a trial court denies the request or whether it begins after the appeals process plays out. Death Penalty Information Center Executive Director Robert Dunham said the Supreme Court’s review of the case has “big stakes” and “major implications for either redressing miscarriages of justice — or institutionalizing them.”
