The third full paragraph of Defendant Exhibit A reads: I deny all of the allegations in that Complaint. However, because I have not prepared any tax returns for almost a year now, and do not intend to prepare any tax returns ever again, I voluntarily agreed that the court could enter an order permanently enjoining me from ever preparing or assisting others in preparing tax returns again, without admitting fault for anything.
