ESTATE OF BETTY W. CURTIS, DECEASED, SUSAN J. CURTIS, ADMINISTRATOR, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
David Gustafson Judge
On June 14, 2022, the Commissioner filed a status report, which states: "The parties are in communication with each other, and are attempting to reach a settlement in this case." The Court appreciates the parties' work, and we hope that a settlement will result.
If the case does not settle, then it will presumably be necessary to set the case for trial. The judge now assigned to this case is not assigned to preside at any trial session in New York City in the near future. It may therefore be efficient to return this case to the general docket, so that a judge can become responsible for the case when it is thereafter assigned to an upcoming New York City trial session. It is therefore
ORDERED that this case is continued generally, to be set for trial in due course at a New York City trial session.
