Ioane, Michael v. Comm.

 

NOT FOR PUBLICATION

 

 

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

 

FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

 

 

Tax Ct. No. 19292-07L

 

 

MEMORANDUM*

 

 

Appeal from a Decision of the United States Tax Court

 

 

Submitted February 15, 2011**

 

 

Before: CANBY, FERNANDEZ, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

Michael Ioane appeals pro se from the tax court's order dismissing his petition contesting the Commissioner of Internal Revenue's Notice of Determination concerning income tax liabilities for tax years 1998 through 2002. We have jurisdiction under 26 U.S.C. § 7482(a)(1). We review de novo. Suter v. Goedert, 504 F.3d 982, 985 (9th Cir. 2007). We affirm.

The tax court properly dismissed Ioane's petition on the ground of mootness, because there was "'no effective relief remaining for [the] court to provide'" after the Internal Revenue Service rescinded the notice of intent to levy and withdrew the tax liens. Id. at 986 (citation omitted).

Ioane's remaining contentions are unpersuasive.

AFFIRMED.
