- 2 - MEMORANDUM OPINION WHERRY, Judge: This case is before the Court on respondent’s motion for summary judgment pursuant to Rule 121.1 The instant proceeding arises from a petition for judicial review filed in response to a Notice of Determination Concerning Collection Action(s) Under Section 6320 and/or 6330. The issue for decision is whether respondent may proceed with collection action as so determined. Background For the taxable year 2001, petitioner filed a joint Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, with Scott Perry Picchiottino (Mr. Picchiottino) on April 15, 2002, reporting a tax liability of $12,629.2 Petitioner and Mr. Picchiottino did not fully pay the liability reflected on the return. Respondent assessed the liability for 2001 on June 10, 2002.3 1 Unless otherwise indicated, all section references are to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and all Rule references are to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure. 2 One of the documents in the record may indicate that the amount reported on the 2001 return was $12,929. In any event, a possible discrepancy or ambiguity on this point is immaterial here in that it is clear the amount assessed was only $12,629. 3 We note that respondent’s motion for summary judgment contains an apparently inadvertent error in listing the same date for the filing of the return and the assessment of the reported liability. The attached transcript of account for 2001 shows the correct dates.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Next
