John McAllister died on April 29. His obituary is here. The obituary says in part relevant to his DOJ Tax service:
John began his legal career with the U.S. Department of Justice in the Tax Division's Northern Civil Trial Section. He spent many years in private practice with Groom Law Group in Washington, D.C., where he built a reputation for integrity and dedication. He concluded his distinguished career as an Assistant Attorney General in the Vermont Department of Taxes in Montpelier, Vermont.
My database shows that he served in Civil Trial Northern from 1979 to 1983.
