DECISION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
No objection having been filed to the Magistrate Judge’s Recommended
Decision filed April 5, 2017 (ECF No. 15), and the Court having performed a
de novo review in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), the Court hereby
accepts the Recommended Decision.
Accordingly, the Court hereby (1) finds that the Petitioner has complied
with all statutory requirements necessary to support the administrative

same; (2) finds that the Respondent has failed to comply with the Court’s show
cause order (ECF No. 12); (3) GRANTS the Petitioner’s Petition to Enforce IRS
Summons (ECF No. 1); (4) ORDERS Respondent, with respect to the relevant

Sewall Street, Room 311, August, Maine, within seven days of this Order; and,
(5) CAUTIONS Respondent that failure to comply with this Order within the
