MARIO TRUJILLO & BERTHA RICO, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Kathleen Kerrigan Chief Judge.
Because the case of Kennedy v. Commissioner, No. 21-1133 (D.C. Cir.), currently pending before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (to which, absent a stipulation, all whistleblower cases are appealable), potentially affects our jurisdiction in this case, it is
ORDERED that the proceedings in this case are stayed pending a ruling by the court of appeals in Kennedy v. Commissioner. It is further
ORDERED that all pending motions will be held in abeyance. It is further
ORDERED that, although the proceedings in this case are stayed, on or before November 3, 2023, the parties shall file status reports (preferably a joint report) concerning the then-current status of this case.
