ALBERT MARK FONDA, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Kathleen Kerrigan Chief Judge.
On May 22, 2024, petitioner filed a Motion to Compel Production of Documents. However, the Motion fails to comply with the Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure. Among other things, petitioner has failed to annex thereto respondent's written response and objections if any to petitioner's underlying discovery request(s). See Rule 72(b)(2), Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure ("To obtain a ruling on an objection by the responding party, on a failure to respond, or on a failure to produce or permit inspection, the requesting party shall file an appropriate motion with the Court and shall annex thereto the request, with proof of service on the other party, together with the response and objections if any.")
Upon due consideration and for cause, it is
ORDERED that petitioner's above-referenced Motion is denied.
