Raha Ahmadi Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Ronald L. Buch, Judge
This case was calendared for trial at the Court's February 14, 2022, San Francisco, trial session. Due to concerns relating to the recent increase in COVID-19 cases driven by the circulation of the highly contagious Omicron variant, the above-referenced in-person trial session was changed to a remote proceeding. On January 27, 2022, the Court held a conference call with the parties. On that call, the parties indicated that this case is susceptible of settlement and that petitioner is in the process of producing documents that may lead to settlement. Petitioner's counsel expects that production to be completed by January 31, 2022. To keep the Court apprised of the status of this case, it is
ORDERED that the parties shall file a joint status report by February 2, 2022, informing the Court of the status of this case, specifically including whether petitioner has completed his production of documents. In lieu of a joint status report, either party may file a status report stating that the other party has reviewed and agreed to the content of the report.
