  1. Statement of issues for the judge to decide:
    1. Can DOR use hearsay documents without authentication?
    2. I am not required to produce the same information which Respondent already has in possession.
    3. I am not required to determine the validity of Respondent's evidence when I can neither confirm nor deny these figures are accurate, though I suspect someone else (perhaps an illegal alien) may have used my SS#, causing these figures to be higher than they actually were.
  2. The Tax Years in dispute are 1999, 2000 and 2001.
  3. I request a negotiated, out-of-court settlement.
  4. Statement of facts I believe the evidence will show I have dependents, deductions, credits, allowances, and business expenses, etc…
  5. Statement of legal authority that I think apply to the facts: I am not a lawyer and I am not trained in this area.
  6. Statement of the conclusion I believe the judge should reach on each issue I want decided: Respondent must prove beyond a shadow of doubt with witness and company records that I did, indeed, receive the income as he states I have.
  7. I request the respondent waive all penalties.
  8. My name and address are listed below.
