HIDEO IMAI, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER OF DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
Kathleen Kerrigan Chief Judge
The petition filed in paper form to commence this case on June 7, 2022, was not properly executed in that it does not bear either the original signature of petitioner or of a practitioner who is admitted to practice before this Court. By Order served July 5, 2022, the Court directed petitioner to file a ratification of petition. No response has been received from petitioner. Accordingly, because the petition has not been ratified by petitioner after the Court provided an opportunity to do so, it is
ORDERED that this case is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
The Court, on its own motion, will consider reinstating the case if, as previously directed, petitioner files a ratification of petition within 30 days from the date of service of this Order.
