PAMELA CHAN, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Mark V. Holmes Judge
This case was on the Court's October 19, 2020 trial calendar for New York City and began with a missing return. Progress has been very slow, but the parties reported in March of this year that they had settled. We spoke with them in September when no settlement document had arrived, and the IRS lawyer promised to send another copy of the settlement document to Ms. Chan. Ms. Chan promised to sign and return it to the IRS for processing. The IRS then reported that she had not done so despite her promise. We issued an order to show cause why we shouldn't dismiss her case. She didn't respond. We would normally enter a decision in respondent's favor at this point, but because respondent has apparently conceded a portion of the original deficiency he determined it is instead
ORDERED that on or before January 6, 2023 respondent file a status report with draft language for a decision in this case.
