- 12 - as an attempt to challenge the validity of the notice of deficiency under Scar v. Commissioner, supra. Petitioners assert that their Motion To Vacate Decision was based upon the theory that the stipulated decision entered in their case was the result of a fraud upon the Court. Petitioners also contend that the Court incorrectly allowed respondent to file a response in opposition to petitioners' motion for leave without serving petitioners with the response and allowing petitioners to file a reply to the same. In conjunction with their Motion for Reconsideration, petitioners contend that their case should be consolidated with Dixon v. Commissioner, docket No. 9382-83--the group of cases that the Court previously consolidated pursuant to the mandate of the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Dufresne v. Commissioner, 26 F.3d 105 (9th Cir. 1994). Petitioners argue that it is an abuse of discretion under the circumstances of the Kersting cases including the massive and continuing fraud committed and condoned by representatives of Respondent and its Office of Chief Counsel for the Office of Chief Counsel, and this Honorable Court, to further attempt to “split off and contain” the illegal and improper fraudulent conduct of Respondent by attempting to deal with the overall conspiracy by ruling on improper actions one at a time, thus preventing their consolidation into a single action which may be properly ruled upon by the panel of United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit which has retained jurisdiction over these matters.Page: Previous 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Next
