- 8 - Petitioner filed an Opposition to respondent’s motion. In his Opposition, petitioner repeats many of the allegations made in the petition. Thus, for example, the Opposition includes the following allegations: Petitioner disagrees with respondent’s decision because I am not required to file a 1040 return and claim my wages as gross taxable income as claimed by the respondent. I have never had a filing requirement therefore respondent has no authority to collect any tax or require petitioner to file, or waste a bunch of time communicating with them over nonsense. This is an infringement on the petitioner’s freedom. * * * Petitioner and the courts can assume the respondent had no authority for sending the notices of proposed assessment or the final notices, and demand for payment to the petitioner. The respondent has no authority to collect a tax from the petitioner because the petitioner has No Filing Requirement! And the only sections that authorize an income tax and the respondent to send these notices are sections which apply to non-resident aliens, foreign corporations and their withholding agents who are required to file a 1040 under 26 USC sections 7701, 1441, 1442, 1443 and 1461! In his Opposition, petitioner also alleges that he was not offered an administrative hearing. Pursuant to notice, respondent’s motion was called for hearing at the Court's motions session in Washington, D.C. Counsel for respondent appeared at the hearing and presented argument in support of the pending motion. In contrast, there was no appearance by or on behalf of petitioner, nor did petitioner file a statement pursuant to Rule 50(c), the provisions of which were mentioned by the Court in its Order calendaring respondent’s motion for hearing.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Next
