Plaintiff, Theodore Zachary, appeals from dismissal of his action for tax refund because of the fatal variance between the claim for refund originally presented to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, based on the ground that losses suffered in 1945 and 1946 might be carried back to 1943, the fiscal year in question, and the claim now sued on, predicated on overstatement of income because of erroneous inclusion of nontaxable sums received as damages for fraud, abuse, and oppression.
