STEPHANIE TALIANCICH & DON TALIANCICH, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER OF DISMISSAL FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
Kathleen Kerrigan Chief Judge
On January 21, 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 18, 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. No response to the Court's Order was received. Hence, by Order of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction entered September 1, 2022, this case was dismissed for petitioners' failure to pay the filing fee as directed by the Court.
Subsequently, on September 23, 2022, the Court received from petitioners payment of the Court's $60.00 filing fee. At that juncture, the Court on September 23, 2022, vacated the Order of Dismissal for Lack of Jurisdiction, reopened the case, and gave petitioners a final opportunity to file an Amended Petition. That Order also warned petitioners that if the Amended Petition is not received by that date, the Court might AGAIN dismiss this case for lack of jurisdiction. However, no Amended Petition has been received.
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.
