LEANNE TROVERO, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Joseph W. Nega, Judge.
This case is calendared for trial at the session of the Court to be conducted remotely, commencing Monday, March 21, 2022, for cases in which Peoria, Illinois, is the place of trial.
On February 25, 2022, respondent filed a Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute, indicting therein that petitioner's views on the granting of this motion are unknown.
The Court will hear respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute filed February 25, 2022, during the remote trial session for Peoria, Illinois. That trial session will not be held in person in that place. The parties were already provided information in a previous Notice about how to sign in by videoconferencing or telephone for the date and time of the calendar call for the remote trial session of the Court. Since all trial sessions are being conducted remotely, the place of trial for petitioner is for administrative purposes only.
Upon due consideration and for cause, it is hereby
ORDERED that, on or before March 15, 2022, petitioner shall file an objection or a response to respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute filed February 25, 2022. It is further
ORDERED that respondent's Motion to Dismiss for Failure to Properly Prosecute filed February 25, 2022, is set for remote hearing during the Court's March 21, 2022, Peoria, Illinois, trial session to be conducted remotely at a date and time of Monday, March 21, 2022, 10:00 AM (CST). It is further
ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall send with petitioner's copy of this Order information concerning tax clinics available on the Peoria, Illinois, calendar usually sent with the Notice of Setting Case for Trial that may offer free legal assistance to low-income taxpayers in the event that petitioner should wish to seek assistance in responding to the IRS motion or with respect to this case generally. A list of these clinics is also available on the Tax Court's website, https://www.ustaxcourt.gov. Petitioner is advised that tax clinics generally provide assistance and advice to low-income taxpayers who have disputes with the IRS. However, tax clinics are not part of the IRS or the Court, and the Tax Court does not endorse any particular clinic.
