Opinion

DECISION OF DISMISSAL
This matter is before the court on Defendant's motion to dismiss (motion), filed November 27, 2007, as part of its Answer, requesting that the Complaint be dismissed.

A case management conference was held on January 29, 2008, to discuss Defendant's motion. Shana Rachelle Stull appeared on her own behalf. Leah R. Hinton, tax auditor, appeared for Defendant.

A Notice of Proposed Adjustment and/or Distribution (Notice) was mailed to Plaintiff's address of record on July 20, 2007. It became final 30 days later on August 19, 2007. From that date, Plaintiff had 90 days to bring a timely appeal to this court.

Defendant contends that Plaintiff filed her appeal 92 days after the date of the Notice became final. Plaintiff stated she was occupied with other matters that caused her delay in filing. During the conference, Plaintiff acknowledged that she postmarked her Complaint to the court November 19, 2007, which is more than 90 days after the date the Defendant's Notice became final. See ORS 305.280(2) (2005); McDowell v.Dept. of Rev., TC-MD No 050812C (Nov 28, 2005) (citing ORS 305.280(2) and holding that taxpayer's appeal filed three days after the statutory deadline must be dismissed). *Page 2

Because Plaintiff acknowledges that the Complaint was filed after the statutory deadline, the court grants Defendant's motion. Now, therefore,

IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that this matter be dismissed.
