A telephone case management conference was held September 14, 2010. Plaintiff appeared through his interpreter. Kevin Cole (Cole), Tax Auditor, appeared on behalf of Defendant.
In the Answer, filed July 13, 2010, Cole requested Plaintiff submit additional information as "proof of support for claimed dependents." (Def's Answer at 3.) Plaintiff did not submit any of the additional requested information.
At the telephone conference, Plaintiff stated that he only had one receipt for the money he sent to his relatives in Mexico in 2008 and he had mailed that receipt to Cole. Plaintiff stated that he is not looking for additional information.
