Your attorney should have known the answer from day one. The taxing agency had the absolute right to keep your 2010 tax refund and apply it to whatever tax year you owe. As your attorney found out, it is the right of offset and no notice is required. The 2010 refund was a pre petition asset in your 2011 case. The government will not be able to do an offset with post petition tax refunds.
