Karen Fisher Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Tamara W. Ashford, Judge
On December 14, 2021, pursuant to the Court's October 15, 2021, Order, the parties filed a Joint Status Report, apprising the Court of the then present status of this case. The parties report that petitioner and the Internal Revenue Service Independent Office of Appeals (Appeals) have been unable to reach a settlement in this case and thus the case will be returned to respondent's counsel for trial preparation. According to the parties, they will continue to work toward a settlement without the necessity of a trial, but as of their December 14, 2021, joint status report, no such settlement has been reached. Upon due consideration, it is hereby
ORDERED that the parties shall, on or before February 14, 2022, electronically submit to the Court an agreed stipulated decision document or file status reports, separately or jointly, apprising the Court of the then present status of this case.
