MEMORANDUM REGARDING STATUS CONFERENCE
A status conference was held in the above captioned adversary proceeding on January 28, 2015. Jose Olivera appeared on behalf of Defendant United States of America, and Liat Blum appeared on behalf of Plaintiff. At the status conference, Plaintiff's counsel explained to the court that the issue in this adversary proceeding is completely dependent on the outcome of a case pending before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, Martin Smith v. Internal Revenue Service, Case No. 14-15867. The court continued the status conference to March 25, 2015, and requested a status conference statement be filed. On March 16, 2015, the Court sua sponte moved the status conference to the April 1, 2015 calendar.
A status conference statement was filed on March 18, 2015, which indicated that the case before the Ninth Circuit remained pending. Having read the status conference statement, it appears another 60 day continuance is appropriate. If any party believes the status conference should remain scheduled on April 8, the party should file a response to this memorandum by April 6. If a response is not filed by April 6, the status conference shall be continued to June 10, 2015, at 10:30 AM in Courtroom 220 of the above-captioned court, located at 1300 Clay Street, Oakland, CA 94612. The following constitutes the order of the court.
Signed April 2, 2015
