Opinion
TC-MD 101137D.
February 16, 2011.
DECISION
This matter is before the court on its own motion for Plaintiffs' failure to respond to Defendant's proposed recommendations, filed January 20, 2011.
On December 3, 2010, the court sent the parties a Journal Entry instructing Plaintiffs to file a written response to Defendant's proposed recommendations by February 2, 2011. The Journal Entry advised that failure to comply with the deadlines set forth therein could result in dismissal of Plaintiffs appeal.
Plaintiffs' deadline has passed and the court has not received the Plaintiffs' written response to Defendant's proposed recommendations or any further communication from Plaintiffs. As a consequence, the court finds that Defendant's proposed recommendations are accepted. Now, therefore,
IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that Plaintiffs' tax-to-pay for tax year 2008 is $30 and because Plaintiffs have paid their account in full Defendant will issue a refund in the amount of $1,440 with statutory interest.
Dated this ____ day of February 2011.
