LUIS I. CALLE, JASMIN CALLE, NEXT FRIEND & ADRIANA RIVERA, Petitioners, v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Tamara W. Ashford Judge.
This case was called from the calendar for the remote Trial Session of the Court commencing on February 27, 2023. Prior to the trial session, on February 24, 2023, documents titled "Designation of Counsel Notice of Appearance to Receive Service" and "Motion for Continuance" were filed with the Court apparently on petitioners' behalf by "Andrew Hoo on behalf of Kevin Drummond, JD and Patrice Scott, JD of A New Start: Financial & Social Services, Inc." However, both are improper filings because the individuals listed on these documents have not yet been admitted to practice before this Court.
When this case was called from the calendar, Jasmin Calle, next friend, and counsel for respondent appeared and were heard, including orally moving for a continuance of the case. Upon due consideration of the record and for cause more fully appearing in the transcript of the proceeding, it is hereby
ORDERED that the above-referenced documents, filed February 24, 2023, and referenced as docket entry numbers 22 and 23, are stricken from the Court's record in this case. It is further
ORDERED that the parties' oral motion for continuance is granted, and this case is continued. It is further
ORDERED that jurisdiction of this case is retained by this Division of the Court. It is further
ORDERED that the parties shall, on or before April 13, 2023, file status reports, separately or jointly, apprising the Court of the then present status of this case.
