- 4 - the illegal initiation of an audit on petitioner’s 2000 tax return, and the illegal denial of petitioner’s right to reasonable accommodation”. These cases were both decided against petitioner by the Department of the Treasury. Petitioner appealed both of these cases, and the EEOC issued a final decision, appeal No. 01A33800, on July 15, 2004. The EEOC affirmed the initial adverse rulings as to both of petitioner’s complaints, concluding that petitioner was not subjected to a hostile work environment or denied reasonable accommodation for his disability, and that the allegation of discrimination due to the selection of petitioner’s 2000 tax return for audit was rejected appropriately. The notice of deficiency was mailed to petitioner on October 3, 2002. The notice determined an income tax deficiency of $3,959, based primarily on the disallowance of amounts petitioner claimed as business expense deductions, for petitioner’s 1999 taxable year. The notice of deficiency, in error, listed January 2, 2002, as the last day to file a petition with this Court. On October 31, 2002, respondent mailed to petitioner a letter acknowledging the error and informing petitioner that the last day to file a petition with this Court was in fact January 2, 2003. Petitioner denies receipt of this letter.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: March 27, 2008
