KENNETH SAVAGE & JAMIE SAVAGE, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Kathleen Kerrigan Chief Judge
On November 28, 2023, correspondence from or on behalf of petitioners, not accompanied by payment of the Court's filing fee, was filed as a petition to commence the above-docketed case. By Orders served December 28, 2022, and February 28, 2023, the Court directed petitioners to pay the Court's $60.00 filing fee or submit an application for waiver thereof. No response to the Court's Order was received. Hence, by Order of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction entered April 20, 2023, this case was dismissed for petitioners' failure to pay the filing fee as directed by the Court.
Subsequently, on May 2, 2023, the Court received from petitioners payment of the Court's $60.00 filing fee. Accordingly, upon due consideration, it is
ORDERED that the Court's Order of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction, entered April 20, 2023, is hereby vacated and set aside. It is further
ORDERED that the time within which petitioners shall file an objection, if any, to respondent's pending Motion To Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction filed February 16, 2023, is hereby extended to May 26, 2023. Failure to comply with this Order may result in the granting of respondent's motion and dismissal once again of the instant case or other appropriate action by this Court.
