ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

On June 24, 2010, petitioner filed a petition to quash two Internal Revenue Service Summons pursuant to 26 U.S.C. §§ 7609(b)(2) and 7609(h).1 (Dkt. No. 1.) On June 29, 2010, this court issued an order setting forth a service and briefing schedule for that petition. (Dkt. No. 2.) Although petitioner filed proofs of service which appear to comply with this court's June 29 order, the time for respondents to file a responsive document has elapsed without any appearance by respondents. Respondents have not filed an opposition, statement of nonopposition or a motion for summary enforcement. ////
