But if the government nas the power to tax
something, then the government has the
power to gesrtroy oe AS was quoted in
b?
McCuilock v. Marvland and in Crandall v.
>
Nevada-'That the power to tax involves the
power to destroy.“ Then, 1f the govenment
can destroy Jodele's wages, then Jodele
covidn't have aright to them; The gov-
ernment would heave the right to Jodele's
wages and then we would be «4 communistic
country instead of a strong democracy we
once had. And consistent with Edward e.
Keith, 2351 Fed Rep 110 were wes quoted,
"One does not derive income by rendering
services and charging for then." This
Court said in Shaffer -«. Carter that whet
constitutes as taxable income “resolves
tseif into 32 mere Question of detini-
ta
tions". A question that this Court an-
swered very plainly in Eisner «. Macomber ;
‘{Wle find little to add to the suc-
cinct definition adopted in two casses
arising under the Corporation Tax Act
of 1909 (Stratton's Independence -v-.
Howbert, 231 U.S. 399, 415; Deyle es.
Mitchell’ Bros. Ce., 247 U.S. 179,

snderstoog to include profit gained
througqn 4 sale or conversion of capi-
tal assets, to which it wes applied in
Dinettes
the Doyle Case ‘pe. i183, 185)
The Government, aithough dasing
its argument upon the definition § as
Quoted, placed chief emphasis upon the
word “gain,” which was extended to in-
>lude 4 variety of meanings; while the
ificance of the next three words
was either overlooked or misconceived.-
‘Derived-from-capital":>-"“the gain-
derived-from-capital ," etc. Here we
nave the essential matter: not a gain

On September 4, 1°86, Jodele filed an
objection to the Commissioner's motion for
damages. Tfhe Commissioner alledged that
Jodele's primery purpose for these pro-
ceedings wes for delay.
Dn Dectober 43, 1985, the Tax Court:
i Ssummeariliy appraved 4nd adopted a
memorandum sur order oft the Special Trial
Judge
(2) summarily granted respondent's
motion to dismiss For failure to state a

1ciencies in petitioner 5 Federal income

(5) summarily awarded damages to the
United States in the amout of $5,000 pur-
suant to section 6673.
The Tax Court erred in adopting the men-—

made findings of fact and conclusions of
law on a4 summary proceeding. This 15 in

The Tax Court erred in summarily denying
Jodele's motion to dismiss for lack of ju-
risdiction because the Tax Court anly hes
jurisdiction to redetermine a deficiency
and not make an original determination of
what constitutes taxable income. Also the
Commissioner hes no relevant evidence to
believe that Jodele had enough taxable in-
come to issve a notice of deficiency which
the Tax Court has no jurisdiction to de-
termine e1ther.
The Tax Court erred in summarily finding
that there are deficiencies in Jodele's
Federal income tax because there was no
evidence entered to suggest that Jodele
had converted his wage into taxable = in-
come Wath no ancome, there can not pos-
sibly be 2a deficiency.
The Tax Court erred in summarily awaerd-
ing dameges to the United States in the a-
mount of $5,000, because Jodele's primary
purposes for instigating these proceedings
are to resolve these questions and 1s5s5uvues

dings that Jodele instituted court pro-
ceedings primerily for delay.
The Tax Court erred 1n summerily dis-
missing this case without complying with
Jogele‘s rignt to be heard. Although
Jodele wes sorne in Los Angeles, CA,
Jodele was raised by his Lithvanian na-
tional parents. Just i1lke a4 lot of other
Americans, English 15 his second language.
Jodele doesn't like to write and theretore
does not write weil, but from necessity
has peen improving. By living most of his
iife in the United States, Jodele has
learned the English language and can un~
derstand and speak 1t very weil for a lay-
man. By only allowing Aim to present his
cases 1n writing, effectively denies him
n1s rignt to be heard. The word used 15
“heard” and not “reed”. By being forced
to compete with a staff of trained lawyers
in writing only, Jodele mut be ablie to
draft formel briefs just like lawyers do.
But this Court seid in Haines sv. Kerner,
4042 U.S. 519, that ley pro ses snould not
be held to the same stringent standards as
lawyers are. A lamaitation of written ap-
pearances only 50 06 6severely handicaps
Jodele's etfectivity in the courts thet it
=
denyvs Jodele an opportunity for 3 meaning-
Ful hearing in a2 meaningful manner. This
is against this Lourt's opinion in
Aarsstrong -¢. Manzo. These summery pro-
ceedinas saiso denied Jodele an etfective
opportunity to defend by confronting any
sdverse witnesses and by presenting his
Own arguments and evidence orally- against
'
this Court's opinion in Geldberg eo. Kelly.
.Tihe riant to be heard before being
condemned to suffer grievous loss of
anv «Kind, even tnougn it may not inm
solve the stigma and hardship of a
- 15 -
eriminel conviction, 153 4 principle
basic to our society."
This Court mede this quote in Aanmti-
Fascist Committee #. McGrath. Jodele will
suffer a grievous los of almost $50,000 if
this Court chooses not to grant Jodele
certiorari. This 1s more wage than Jodele
has been sable to earn in i980 and 1981
combined!
This Court hes repeatedly and consist-
ently used the word “heara” and not the
word “reaa"“ to fulfill the Constitutionel
requirement of due process of law.
On appeai to the Jnited States Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the Court
summarily affirmed the Tax Court's summary
judgment and imposed attorneys' fees upon
Jodele. The Ninth Circuit bdbeidly stated
maw
that, Thes 18 no constitutional right to
oral arqument.

But there 15 a constitutional right to
be heard, not to be read. And in Jodele's
case, he was s0 severely handicapped in
written proceedings thet his right to be
heard can not have been complied with,
without an oral presentation.
Jodele pointed out to the Ninth Circuit,
in his petition for rehearing en banc,
that whatever the Commissioner claimes can
not be presumed correct unless a minimal
ePevlidenciary foundation 1s laid showing
that Jodele's wages have been converted
into income. Just because Jodele was
walting to present his case to the court
in Los Angeies, ‘4s has been granted by
the Tax Court in Washingtons 15S no reason
to impose sanctions against Jodele and
summarily dismiss his case tor failure to
state a claim upon which relief could be
Qranted. See Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S.

Ar qument
Jodele may not be able to artfully plead
his case, But he has very substantial is-
sues of law to settle and is entitled to
an opportunity to offer proof. If these
proceedings keep getting summerily dis-
missed, Jodeie will be condemned to suffer
@ grievous loss; not for being proved
wrong but for not being as skilled as a
lawyer is in dratting formel pleadings.
Reason for Granting Hrit
This Court has from time to time took on
the task of delineating, 1n meaningful
language, the manner in which the
constitutional rights of the individual
could be protected. Probaly most recently
against overzealous police practices in
Miranda v. Arizona. Supreme Court Justice
Wilizam O. Douglas once saic that our Bill
of Raghts curb all three branches of gov-
T
ernment. it subjects ail departments oat
_ 13 fate
government to a rule of law and sets
boundaries beyond which no official may
go. It emphasizes that in this country
man walks with dignity and without fear,
that he need not grovel before an all pow-
erful government. Gut todey, the |.R.$.
hes usurped so mucn power that it has the
lay public groveling at their feet. This
Court should delineate similar guidelines
For the I.R.S., 1m conjunction with the
Tax Court, the manner in which the consti-
tutional rights of the individual could be
orotected from the overzealous I1.R.5.
practices. Jodele understands that the I.
R.S. needs power 1n order to perform 1ts
Function, but to deprive individuals their
rights as a4 normal course of buisness
breeds contempt for the I.R.S. and its
laws. The cnences of an individual
comming in contact with the I.R.5. are
much greater than one being confronted by
8 police otficer.

Conclusion
Jodele was denied an effective opportu-
nity to defend By confronting any adverse
witnesses and by presenting h1s5 own argu-
ments and evidence orally at 4 meaningful
time and in a3 meaningful manner, and
therefore, has been denied his constitu-
tional right to due process of law.
This Court should determine whether im
posing attorneys' fees 15 3 form of double
taxation when they are imposed on 6 pei~
vate citizen and the attorneys are employ-
ees of the United States. The attorneys
already draw a salary that 15 payed by the
taxpayers, including Jodele.
My Commission Expires:
Wherefore, tne petitioner asks this
Court tnat, for all the foregoing reasons,
the petition for writ of certiorari be
granted.
