The Five-Year Like-Kind Exchange: Starker v. Commissioner, 75-1 U.S. Tax Cas. 87, 142 (D. Ore. 1975)
Abstract
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 provides that no gain or loss will be recognized if certain qualifying property is "exchanged" for like-kind qualifying property rather than sold. The recent case of Starker v. Commissioner, has extended the definition of "exchange" far beyond the typical contemporaneous swapping of property situation to which the section had previously been applied.
