There is a hardship statute (Federal) that allows you to skip filing taxes if an extraordinary catastrophic even, such as an earthquake, affects your life enough to prevent you from filing taxes. But, you still have to fill out a form asking for permission to do so.

To be allowed any relief from the tax laws Congress declares a group effected by catastrophe...and that happens to a bunch every year. Flood, weather of other types are common. BUT, all you ever get is allowed to file a bit late, maybe the right to take some type of loss early. NEVER, EVER has anyone/group been exempted for paying taxes for any reason.
