SHADA BARBARA COLEMAN, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Peter J. Panuthos Special Trial Judge
By Notice dated December 16, 2022, this case is currently calendared for trial at the Court's April 11, 2023, Detroit, Michigan trial session. On January 9, 2023, petitioner filed a document titled First Amendment to Petition (Index #10). The filing of this document was improper as it appears to be an Amended 2020 tax return. On January 19, 2023, respondent filed documents titled Answer to Amended Petition (Index #11) and Answer to Amendment to Petition (Index #12). Accordingly, the Court will strike these documents from the record in this case.
Petitioner is advised that, unless otherwise directed by the Court, tax returns are not properly filed with this Court. If petitioner wishes respondent's counsel to review documents in an effort to settle this case before trial, petitioner must submit such documents directly to respondent's counsel, whose contact information appears in the answer filed September 9, 2022.
Upon due consideration, it is
ORDERED that petitioner's First Amendment to Petition (Index #10), respondent's Answer to Amended Petition (Index #11), and respondent's Answer to Amendment to Petition (Index #12) are deemed stricken from the Court's record.
The parties are reminded that this case remains calendared for trial (to be conducted remotely) at the Court's April 11, 2023, Detroit, Michigan trial session.
