1Opinion of the Court

Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge BROWN.

Dissenting opinion filed by Circuit Judge KAVANAUGH, with whom Chief Judge SENTELLE and Circuit Judge HENDERSON join.

BROWN, Circuit Judge:

After illegally collecting a three percent excise tax, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS” or “the Service”) created a refund procedure for taxpayers to recoup their money. That procedure, Appellants argue, is unlawful. We have no occasion to visit the merits of Appellants’ claims, as we granted rehearing en banc only to determine whether we have the authority to hear the case. We do.
