Melissa Vee Green, Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Respondent
ORDER
MAURICE B. FOLEY CHIEF JUDGE
On August 27, 2021, petitioner filed an Amended Petition. Attached to the Amended Petition is a statement of taxpayer identification number. Rule 27(a), Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure, provides that the parties shall refrain from including taxpayer identification numbers in filings made with the Court. Moreover, although a taxpayer is required to submit with a petition a statement of taxpayer identification number, the Court will not file that statement or make it part of the Court's file in the case. Rule 20(b); see Note to Rule 20, 130 T.C. 382-383.
Upon due consideration and for cause, it is
ORDERED that petitioner's Amended Petition, filed August 27, 2021, is hereby deemed stricken from the Court's record and shall not be viewable as part of this case. It is further
ORDERED that the time within which petitioner shall file an Amended Petition is extended to September 28, 2021. If the Amended Petition is not received by September 28, 2021, the Court may dismiss this case for lack of jurisdiction.
