Lewis R. Carluzzo Chief Special Trial Judge
This I.R.C. section 6330(d) case, set for trial during the Chicago, Illinois, trial session scheduled to begin on September 25, 2023, is before the Court on respondent's (1) motion for continuance, and (2) motion for leave, both filed August 11, 2023. The motions were heard in Chicago, Illinois, on September 25, 2023. Counsel for respondent appeared and argued in support of the motions. Petitioners appeared and offered no objection to either motion.
Premises considered, and for cause set for more fully in the transcript of the above-referenced proceedings, it is
ORDERED that respondent's motion to continue is granted, and this case is continued with jurisdiction retained by the undersigned. It is further
ORDERED that respondent's motion for leave is granted, and the Clerk of the Court file, as of the date lodged, the amendment to answer lodged with respondent's motion. Under the circumstances, it is further
ORDERED that possible stipulations to the contrary notwithstanding, the affirmative allegations contained in respondent's amendment to answer are deemed denied.
Unless a proposed stipulated decision is submitted sooner, the parties should expect that the matter will be scheduled for trial during the Court's 2024 winter term.
