KEY POINTS

- Hedge-fund billionaire Ken Griffin has sued the IRS and the Treasury Department over the “unlawful disclosure” of his tax information.

- The claims stem from Griffin’s inclusion in a ProPublica series in 2021 examining the taxes paid by top billionaires like Elon Musk and Carl Icahn.

- The leaked tax returns sparked an uproar in Washington, with the IRS inspector general and Justice Department investigating and Republicans frustrated by a lack of answers.
