5. AKHB REVIEW POINT

Do not cite a low-tax-effect withdrawal as a substantive tax precedent. Preserve this distinct November order separately from the same-party March condonation application: different dates, dockets, benches and operative outcomes prevent treating them as duplicates; the supplied orders alone do not prove their docket linkage.
