ORDER
Tamara W. Ashford, Judge.
This case is currently calendared for trial at the Session of the Court commencing on May 1, 2023, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. On April 5, 2023, pursuant to the Court's Standing Pretrial Order served on the parties on January 13, 2023, respondent filed a Status Report, apprising the Court of the then present status of this case. Respondent reports that the parties have reached a basis for settlement and the basis of the settlement is a partial concession of the amount stated in the notice of deficiency for which petitioner submitted an advanced payment on December 9, 2022. Respondent further reports that the parties request additional time to file a proposed settlement document, and asserts that the cause of the delay in settlement has been caused by the 2020 taxable year account balance issues for which requests have been submitted to correct; respondent estimates that corrections will be completed and a proposed settlement document will be filed with the Court before the May 1, 2023, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Trial Session. Upon due consideration, it is hereby
ORDERED that this case is stricken for trial from the May 1, 2023, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Trial Session of the Court. It is further
ORDERED that jurisdiction of this case is retained by this Division of the Court. It is further
ORDERED that the parties shall, on or before May 22, 2023, electronically submit to the Court an agreed stipulated decision document or file status reports, separately or jointly, apprising the Court of the then present status of this case.
