               On January 16, 2002, petitioner in each of the cases at                
          docket Nos. 9700-00 and 9701-00 filed a response to respondent’s            
          motion in each such case to dismiss for lack of prosecution and             
          to impose sanctions under section 6673.  On January 16, 2002,               
          Criss Trust filed a response to respondent’s motion to hold                 
          petitioner in default in the case of docket No. 9702-00.  Each of           
          those respective responses contained arguments and contentions              
          that the Court found in an Order dated January 17, 2002 (January            
          17, 2002 Order) to be frivolous and/or groundless.  In the                  
          January 17, 2002 Order that the Court issued in each of these               
          cases, the Court reminded each petitioner about section                     
          6673(a)(1).8  The Court’s respective January 17, 2002 Orders in

                    Court for illegal purposes.  Respondent has no                    
                    legal tax claim as petitioner has noted to respon-                
                    dent and this Court on numerous occasions.  With-                 
                    out a legal claim, respondent fraudulently in-                    
                    structed petitioner to use this Court to legiti-                  
                    mize his illegal attempt to deprive petitioner of                 
                    his assets.
