T.C. Memo. 2004-137
UNITED STATES TAX COURT
LYNDON D. SINELE, Petitioner v.
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
Docket No. 7801-02. Filed June 10, 2004.
Jerrold N. Arnowitz (specially recognized) and John L.
Hause (specially recognized), for petitioner.1
D. Sean McMahon, for respondent.
1 At calendar call, Mr. Arnowitz and Mr. Hause advised the
Court that they had just been retained by petitioner. The Court
asked if they were admitted to practice before the Court. Mr.
Arnowitz and Mr. Hause advised the Court that although they were
admitted to practice in Massachusetts, they were in the process
of being admitted to the Court. Between calendar call and the
trial, both Mr. Arnowitz and Mr. Hause were admitted to practice
before the Court. At trial, Mr. Hause appeared on behalf of
petitioner.
Subsequent to the trial, petitioner filed two motions to
extend time to file his opening brief. In the motions, he stated
that he could no longer afford Mr. Arnowitz and Mr. Hause and
they no longer represented him. It is unclear, however, whether
Mr. Arnowitz and Mr. Hause represented petitioner during the
briefing period as Mr. Arnowitz and Mr. Hause have not filed a
motion to withdraw as counsel and no briefs were filed by
petitioner.
