                          Opposition to Motion for Summary Judgment

 

Petitioner Daniel Patriot hereby files his opposition to the IRS Motion for Summary Judgment dated August 09, 2005, based on the following grounds.

 

(1)  On May 02, 2005 Petitioner Daniel Patriot filed a petition to overturn an IRS CDPH Petition or as stated: Redetermination of a Deficiency. The Face to Face hearing was held March 21, 2005.

 

2.The year in question Mr. Patriot had deductions, credits, business expenses, insurance cost…etc. that are not reflected on the return. Mr. Patriot had no tax liability except federal privileged income which I reported as gross income.

 

     3. On the day of the hearing Mr. Patriot was severely ill and under medication that subdued him mentally to the point that he could not raise the proper questions or fully understand the question and suggestions put to him by the Appeals Officer.

 

      4. Approximately two weeks before the CDPH Mrs. Patriot contacted Mr. M. Jeka Appeals Officer for the Denver IRS Office as well as writing him ______________ . Mr. Jeka stated  angrily that he wasn’t going to let the case go beyond the date specified in the letter for the CDPH in spite of his condition, therefore Mr. Patriot was forced to attend in his condition.

 

     5. Mr. Patriot was and is suffering from a multitude of illnesses that has complicated his life  for approximately 30 years where upon he tried to work sporadically, from 1974 to 1985 (in 1985 he worked for approximately 16 months). From 1986 to 1996 he was unable to work. In 1999 he was forced to try and work regardless, unless he wanted to live under the bridge, so he tried to work.

 

Mr. Patriot was hospitalized in 2000 from complications that started sometime in 1999. He has had hospital admission as well as emergency room trips. In 2004 he was admitted to the VA Hospital. He has a history of P.T.S.D. which causes him to have psychotic episodes, fights depression, memory loss, illusions of fighting Viet soldiers, being strangled by them. He’s always on the “look out and has numerous other hospital stays and medical problems.

 

6. These are the primary reasons Mr. Patriot didn’t pick up alleged notices to him over a period of time he has been incapacitated, in addition the IRS was also sending letters to his old as well as new address. Mrs. Williams at 6801 e 22nd avenue can attest to the IRS sending mail to her address, addressed to Mr. Patriot.

 

7. Mr. Patriot was told by Mr. Jeka appeals officer to bring in an amended return for the year in question which Mr. Patriot did. In his condition he took an incorrect 1040X in to the CDPH. After the CDPH it was realized and another 1040X with the corrected deductions was sent to Austin, Texas IRS Office.

 

8. Mr. Patriot didn’t have a fair and complete hearing, he request a new hearing DE NOVO in tax court to settle this matter. Mr. Patriot requests someone from the IRS to contact him so he can settle out of court.

 

9. Mr. Patriot wants someone from the IRS with correct knowledge to assist him with the 4852’s which is an IRS Form correcting erroneous information filed by various companies, rebutting that information.

 

Mr. Patriot is asserting  a reasonable dispute with respect to those receipts that was filed with the Secretary under B or C of Part 3 of subchapter A of chapter 61 by a third party…. The Secretary shall have the burden of producing reasonable and probative information (from his own knowledge) concerning such deficiency in addition to such information return.

 

Sec-7491—Burden of Proof

(a)  Burden shifts where taxpayer produces credible evidence

(1)  General Rule

If, in any court proceeding, a taxpayer introduces credible evidence with respect to any factual issue relevant to ascertaining the liability of the taxpayer for any tax imposed by subtitle A or B, the Secretary shall have the burden of proof with respect to such issue.

 

No one in the IRS, not even the Secretary has any personal or direct knowledge of any receipts other than perhaps federal privileged income or income arising from the Federal Government paying the individual directly.

 

10. On line number 16- the IRS stated incorrect information; Mrs. Patriot picked up the phone and what the IRS Counsel said was: Do you object to my dismissing the case, whereupon Mr. Patriot said, NO.

 

It is PRAYED that the Motion for Summary Judgment be denied and REMANDED back to appeals.
