## Opinion text

MERRITT, Circuit Judge,
concurring.
I agree with the Court that the materials in question here are not subject to disclosure under Section 6103, Title 26, United States Code. For the reasons set out in the portion of the Court’s opinion entitled “Section 6103 Exemption From Disclosure,” I see no need to consider the other questions in the case.
