Another crypto user sued the IRS in 2025 for allegedly violating his Fourth Amendment rights after the agency used a John Doe Summons to collect his data from a crypto exchange.
A California court on Wednesday dismissed a Coinbase user’s attempt to block an IRS summons for his financial records, in at least the second such case in the past year to fail to reach trial.
Roger Metz filed a petition in the Northern District of California in May 2025 to quash an IRS summons ordering Coinbase to hand over his financial records in connection with an audit of his 2022 federal tax return.
His lawyers argued the summons violated his privacy rights, was overbroad and failed to meet basic administrative requirements.
