Premier Immediate Medical Care LLC Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
DAVID GUSTAFSON, JUDGE
This case was scheduled to be tried at the Court's session in Philadelphia beginning April 18, 2022. Petitioner filed a motion (Doc. 17) for a continuance, explaining that the parties hope to settle the case without trial. We will grant a continuance. However, the motion requests a continuance of 90 days, which, if granted, would call for a trial in mid-July 2022. There is no regular trial session scheduled for mid-July, so granting this motion would require the judge signing this order to retain jurisdiction and to schedule a special trial session. Given his current schedule (which includes a mid-July trial in Atlanta), that would not be convenient. Moreover, since the parties do hope to settle the case, a trial may not be necessary. We will therefore continue the case generally, so that it will be scheduled in due course for trial (if necessary) at a future session in Philadelphia. It is
ORDERED that the motion for a continuance (Doc. 17) is granted in part, in that the case is continued generally.
