On March 25, 2022, respondent filed a Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute, in which the respondent moves the Court to enter a decision in the amount and for the year set forth therein, i.e., 2017. The motion details respondent's extensive efforts to communicate with petitioner and petitioner's lack of response.

By Order served April 29, 2022, the Court directed petitioner to file an objection, if any, to respondent's motion. Nothing further has been received from petitioners in the intervening months.

Upon due consideration and for cause, it is

ORDERED that respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute, filed March 25, 2022, is granted and this case is dismissed for lack of prosecution. It is further

ORDERED AND DECIDED that there is a deficiency in income tax due from petitioner for the taxable year 2017 in the amount of $4,405.00.
