C corp client had return prepared.
Return was filed before they paid (yeah....)
C corp dissolves.
They argue they don't have to pay the bill because it was a debt of the corporation and the corporation is now dissolved and has no assets.
I thought in a dissolution all the creditors had to be paid before corporate assets were distributed to shareholders (2 in this case) but it sounds like they distributed everything and now tell creditors to pound sand.
Has anyone dealt with something like this? I would hope there has to be some kind of liability placed on the shareholders since they knew of the debt and didn't pay it.
(This corp return was the only one we did for them - no personal returns or anything to try to hang over their heads to get them to pay).
