that is expected to generate $340 billion, mainly from the foreign subsidiaries of domestic corporations that parked money abroad to shield it from U.S. taxes.

The court ruled in the case of Charles and Kathleen Moore, of Redmond, Washington.

Moore said in a sworn statement that he never received any money from the company, KisanKraft Machine Tools Private Ltd.
