Mark A. Young & Marjorie Young Petitioners v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Maurice B. Foley Chief Judge
On May 6, 2021, an imperfect petition commencing this case was filed. By order issued August 5, 2021, the Court directed petitioners, on or before September 20, 2021, to file a proper amended petition and to pay the Court's $60.00 filing fee in this case (or submit an application for waiver of filing fee for consideration). Petitioners have not complied with that Order. On March 18, 2022, respondent filed a Motion To Dismiss for Lack of Prosecution. Upon due consideration and for cause, it is
ORDERED that respondent's above motion to dismiss for lack of prosecution is denied without prejudice. It is further
ORDERED that the time within which petitioners shall file an amended petition and pay the filing fee, is extended to April 18, 2022. If, by April 18, 2022, no amended petition and/or filing fee is received, the Court may dismiss this case for lack of jurisdiction. 1
