Thereafter, both the taxpayer and the executive director shall proceed as provided in section 39-21-103 with respect to the hearing or determination on written brief. Upon reaching a decision upon the claim for refund after hearing had thereon or consideration of the written brief, the executive director shall send to the taxpayer, by first-class mail as set forth in section 39-21-105.5, notice of final determination of claim for refund, stating therein the grounds for allowance or rejection in whole or in part.(2)
If the executive director determines that a request for a hearing related to the tax set forth in part 1 of article 22 of this title is a frivolous submission and rejects the request pursuant to section 39-21-104.5, the taxpayer shall not be entitled to a hearing before the executive director and the provisions of section 39-21-104.5 shall apply.
