Latest version.
  • If any petitioner commences or maintains
      a proceeding in the division of tax appeals primarily for delay,  or  if
      the  petitioner's position in such proceeding is frivolous, then the tax
      appeals tribunal may impose a penalty against  such  petitioner  of  not
      more   than  five  hundred  dollars.  The  tax  appeals  tribunal  shall
      promulgate rules and regulations as  to  what  constitutes  a  frivolous
      position.  This  penalty  shall  be  in  addition  to  any other penalty
      provided by law and shall be  collected  and  distributed  in  the  same
      manner as the tax to which the penalty relates.
