Charles M. Trammell

Charles Monroe Trammell (July 6, 1886 – July 26, 1967) was a judge of the United States Board of Tax Appeals (later the United States Tax Court) from 1924 to 1936.

[1] Trammell served in that capacity until 1917, when he left to serve in World War I, first entering the United States Army Air Corps, and in March 1919, transferring to the office of the Judge Advocate General's Corps.

[4] After leaving the board, he was retained by the Associated Gas and Electric Company in a $40 million matter, for which Trammell's retainer was large enough to stir government concerns about officials leaving government to represent private clients against the United States.

[7] During World War II, he again served in the office of the Judge Advocate General, first with the office of the Administrator of Export Control and later with the Board of Economic Warfare.

[4] In 1950, Trammell "announced the opening of offices for the practice of law specializing in tax matters at the Denrike Building, Washington, D.C.",[4] and in 1955, Trammell was noted as serving as legal counsel in the tax evasion trial of wealthy Miami businessman Howard G.
