STATEMENT OF CASE
This
matter came before the Utah State Tax Commission for a Settlement Conference
pursuant to the provisions of Utah Code Ann. §59-1-502.5, on XXXXX. Gail S. Reich, Administrative Law Judge,
heard the matter for and on behalf of the Commission. Present and representing Petitioner was XXXXX. Present and representing Respondent was
XXXXX.
This
matter involves $$$$$ in penalty and $$$$$ in interest imposed for the XXXXX

payment and late filing was assessed based on an invalid extension

penalties and interest upon a showing of reasonable cause. (Utah Code Ann. §59-1-401(8).)

the penalties and interest assessed for the XXXXX income tax year.
