Dorothy P. Litzenberg appeals from the tax court’s orders dismissing her petition based on her failure to appear for the scheduled trial and denying her motions for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny Litzenberg’s motion for appointment of counsel, and dismiss on the reasoning of the tax court. See Litzenberg v. Comm’r, No. 01-837-L (U.S.T.C. Sept. 17, Oct. 23, & Oct. 4, 2002). We also deny Litzenberg’s “Motion for Special Judicial Appointment, Hearing, Counsel, and Related Relief.” We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
