SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES 

FORD MOTOR COMPANY v. UNITED STATES 

ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED 

STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT
 

No. 13–113. Decided December 2, 2013

 PER CURIAM. 

When a taxpayer overpays his taxes, he is generally 

entitled to interest from the Government for the period

between the payment and the ultimate refund. See 26 

U. S. C. §6611(a). That interest begins to run “from the

date of overpayment.” §§6611(b)(1), (b)(2). But the Code 

does not define “the date of overpayment.” 

In this case, after the Internal Revenue Service advised 

Ford Motor Company that it had underpaid its taxes from

1983 until 1989, Ford remitted a series of deposits to the 

IRS totaling $875 million. Those deposits stopped the accrual of interest that Ford would otherwise owe once the 

audits were completed and the amount of its underpayment was finally determined. See §6601; Rev. Proc. 84– 

58, 1984–2 Cum. Bull. 501. Later, Ford requested that the

IRS treat the deposits as advance payments of the additional tax that Ford owed. Eventually the parties determined that Ford had overpaid its taxes in the relevant

years, thereby entitling Ford to a return of the overpayment as well as interest. But the parties disagreed

about when the interest began to run under 26 U. S. C.

§6611(b)(1). Ford argued that “the date of overpayment” 

was the date that it first remitted the deposits to the IRS. 

Ibid. The Government countered that the date of overpayment was the date that Ford requested that the IRS

treat the remittances as payments of tax. The difference 

between the parties’ competing interpretations of §6611(b) 

is worth some $445 million. 

Ford sued the Government in Federal District Court, 
 

 

2 FORD MOTOR CO. v. UNITED STATES 

Per Curiam 

asserting jurisdiction under 28 U. S. C. §1346(a)(1). The 

Government did not contest the court’s jurisdiction. See 

Brief in Opposition 3, n. 3. The District Court accepted

the Government’s construction of §6611(b) and granted its

motion for judgment on the pleadings. A panel of the

Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed, concluding

that §6611 is a waiver of sovereign immunity that must be

construed strictly in favor of the Government. 508 Fed. 

Appx. 506 (2012).

Ford sought certiorari, arguing that the Sixth Circuit 

was wrong to give §6611 a strict construction. In Ford’s 

view, it is 28 U. S. C. §1346—not §6611—that waives the 

Government’s immunity from this suit, and §6611(b) is a

substantive provision that should not be construed strictly.

See Gómez-Pérez v. Potter, 553 U. S. 474, 491 (2008); 

United States v. White Mountain Apache Tribe, 537 U. S. 

465, 472–473 (2003). In its response to Ford’s petition for

certiorari, however, the Government contended for the 

first time that §1346(a)(1) does not apply at all to this suit;

it argues that the only basis for jurisdiction, and “the only

general waiver of sovereign immunity that encompasses

[Ford’s] claim,” is the Tucker Act, 28 U. S. C. §1491(a). 

Brief in Opposition 3, n. 3. Although the Government

acquiesced in jurisdiction in the lower courts, if the Government is now correct that the Tucker Act applies to this 

suit, jurisdiction over this case was proper only in the

United States Court of Federal Claims. See §1491(a). 

This Court “is one of final review, ‘not of first view.’ ” 

FCC v. Fox Television Stations, Inc., 556 U. S. 502, 529 

(2009) (quoting Cutter v. Wilkinson, 544 U. S. 709, 718, 

n. 7 (2005)). The Sixth Circuit should have the first opportunity to consider the Government’s new contention with 

respect to jurisdiction in this case. Depending on that 

court’s answer, it may also consider what impact, if any,

the jurisdictional determination has on the merits issues, 

especially whether or not §6611 is a waiver of sovereign

Per Curiam 

immunity that should be construed strictly.

The petition for certiorari is granted, the judgment of

the Sixth Circuit is vacated, and the case is remanded for 

further proceedings. 

It is so ordered.
