FONIK FABIAN BITALY, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Kathleen Kerrigan, Chief Judge
On September 3, 2024, the parties filed a Proposed Stipulated Decision and Settlement Stipulation. However, the date of respondent's counsel's signature has not been placed on the Settlement Stipulation. See Rule 23(a)(2), Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure ("The date of signature must be placed on all papers filed with the Court."). That being so, it is
ORDERED that the parties' above-referenced Settlement Stipulation is deemed stricken from the Court's record in this case. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before September 25, 2024, the parties shall file an appropriately revised settlement stipulation. It is further
ORDERED that action on the parties' above-referenced Proposed Stipulated Decision shall be held in abeyance pending further direction by the Court.
