SAMY M. SHENDY & FATEN A. ABDELDAIEM, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER OF DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
KATHLEEN KERRIGAN, CHIEF JUDGE.
On February 7, 2022, 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 Order served March 31, 2022, the Court directed petitioners to file an Amended Petition and to pay the Court's $60.00 filing fee or submit an Application for Waiver of Filing Fee for consideration.
Subsequently, on May 26, 2021, the Court received from petitioners payment of the Court's $60.00 filing fee. However, no Amended Petition has been received to date. Rather, petitioners submitted a letter on the same date suggesting that the matter may have been resolved administratively with the Internal Revenue Service. Accordingly, the premises considered, it is
ORDERED that, on the Court's own motion, this case is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction on the ground that petitioners failed to file a proper Amended Petition reflecting an intent to pursue this litigation.
