When CSTJ Lewis (“Spelled Right”) Carluzzo issues an invitation, it’s well to heed it. While he may not be able to give recusants the Luke 14:23 treatment, it may yet be unpleasant to say “no.”
CSTJ Lew extends the invitation to Nivaldo Souza & Ivonete Souza, Docket No. 32006-21*, filed 12/2/21, after tossing their petition for failure to state a claim.
“Petitioners’ attention is invited to I.R.C. section 6673(a). If it appears to the Court that a taxpayer’s position in a proceeding before the Court is frivolous or groundless, then the Court can impose a penalty (not to exceed $25,000) on that taxpayer.” Order, at p. 1.
And it’s beginning to look a lot like frivolity to CSTJ Lew.
No chop today, but heed the invitation.
