Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois, 60604. It is further
ORDERED that respondent's motion to proceed remotely, filed January 14, 2022, is denied without prejudice. It is further
ORDERED that taking into account the June 27, 2022, trial date, the terms and conditions of the Court's Standing Pretrial Order previously served upon the parties remain in full force and effect.
If a party prefers to proceed remotely in this case, a motion to do so must be filed within 30 days from the date of service of this Order. General instructions describing how to proceed remotely can be found on the Court's website at www.ustaxcourt.gov/case_related_forms.html.
