DAVID E. SIEGEL & MARY ANN MONICA PEDEE-SIEGAL, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Diana L. Leyden, Special Trial Judge.
This case is calendared for trial at the January 17, 2023, Baltimore, Maryland, Trial Session of the Court. On July 12, 2021, petitioners timely filed a petition challenging a notice of determination dated April 5, 2021, issued for tax year 2018. Petitioners' petition consisted of 15 pages and included unredacted personal identifying information.
Rule 27(a), Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure, generally provides that in an electronic or paper filing with the Court, a party or nonparty making the filing should refrain from including or should take appropriate steps to redact certain specified information, such as taxpayer identification numbers and financial account numbers. Due to the unredacted personal identifying information appearing in the petition, the Court will take steps to seal petitioners' petition to protect their information. For cause, it is
ORDERED that on the Court's own motion the unredacted petition filed to commence this case on July 12, 2021, is sealed to public view.
