CATHLEEN MARIE ZEPEDA, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Kathleen Kerrigan, Chief Judge.
On June 10, 2022, respondent filed a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction on the grounds that the petition was not filed within the time prescribed in the Internal Revenue Code. On January 23, 2023, a Response to Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction was filed on behalf of petitioner by Matthew Briglio, CPA. However, Mr. Briglio is not admitted to practice before this Court and thus cannot represent petitioner in this case. The response does not bear the signature of petitioner.
Upon due consideration of the foregoing, it is
ORDERED that the above-referenced Response to Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction is stricken from the record in this case. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before August 14, 2023, petitioner shall file a Response to respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction. Failure to file a response may result in the granting of respondent's motion.
