             1Respondent concedes that no return was prepared by the                  
             Secretary, pursuant to sec. 6020(b), and that petitioner is not          
             liable for the addition to tax under sec. 6651(a)(2).  See sec.          
             6651(g).                                                                 

             All section references in this opinion are to the Internal               
             Revenue Code.                                                            
                  Petitioner filed an imperfect petition ostensibly                   
             seeking redetermination of those deficiencies.                           
             Petitioner’s imperfect petition states as follows:                       

                       I have filed a petition each year for the                      
                  past 18 years.  All you ever do is steal my fil-                    
                  ing fee.  Even when it was $15.00.  I have never                    
                  been given a Court date.  You have no intentions                    
                  of ever giving me a Court date because you do not                   
                  want to deal with this matter.  One day it will                     
                  be on National news and all of America will know                    
                  how you have done me.                                               

                  The Court issued an order stating that petitioner’s                 
             imperfect petition did not comply with the Rules of the                  
             Court as to the form and content and noting that the filing              
             fee had not been paid.  The Court ordered petitioner to                  
             file a proper amended petition and to pay the filing fee                 
             on or before a certain date.  Petitioner filed an amended                
             petition but did not pay the filing fee.  For cause, the                 
             Court waived the filing fee in this case.
