AARON M. BRAUN, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
L. Paige Marvel Judge
On October 5, 2022, counsel for respondent filed a Settlement Stipulation and the parties' Proposed Stipulated Decision. Upon review of the settlement stipulation, the taxable year listed in some places is for 2011 instead of the taxable year at issue, 2016, and the overpayment amounts listed on the settlement stipulation and the proposed stipulated decision vary. On October 7, 2022, a member of the Court staff informed counsel for respondent of the errors in the settlement stipulation. Counsel for respondent informed the Court that he anticipated filing a corrected settlement stipulation before the call of the case at the October 31, 2022, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Trial Session.
On October 31, 2022, this case was called from the calendar at the Court's Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Trial Session. There was no appearance by or on behalf of the petitioner. Counsel for respondent appeared and reported that the parties in this case have reached a basis for settlement, and they anticipate submitting a corrected settlement stipulation and signed decision document shortly. The Court will allow the parties 30 days to file a corrected settlement stipulation and a corrected proposed decision document. Upon due consideration and for cause more fully appearing in the transcript of the proceeding, it is
ORDERED that this case is continued, and jurisdiction of this case is retained by the undersigned. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before December 2, 2022, the parties shall either file a joint report as to the then-current status of this case or shall file a corrected settlement stipulation and a corrected proposed stipulated decision.
