Before KING, Chief Judge, and BARKSDALE and STEWART, Circuit Judges.


KING, Chief Judge:

The government appeals from the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of Susan Harrigill on her claim for a tax refund. Because we find that the district court erred in granting summary judgment for Harrigill, and because the government is entitled to judgment as a matter of law, we VACATE the judgment and REMAND to the district court with instructions to enter judgment for the government.
