VINCENT J. FUMO, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Albert G. Lauber Judge
On October 4, 2022, respondent filed a Motion in Limine requesting a ruling that the transcript of testimony delivered by witness Dorthy Egrie-Wilcox during petitioner's criminal trial, United States v. Vincent J. Fumo, et al, Crim. No. 06-00319, is admissible into evidence over petitioner's hearsay objection. A transcript of her prior testimony is attached to the parties' Second Supplemental Stipulation of Facts, filed March 4, 2020, as Exhibit 435-J. Ms. Egrie-Wilcox currently resides in Florida.
This case was called for trial at the Court's Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Special Trial Session on October 3, 2022. During the trial petitioner withdrew his hearsay objection, and the parties agreed that the transcript of Ms. Egrie-Wilcox's prior testimony may be admitted into evidence in lieu of requiring her testimony in person. Upon due consideration and for cause more fully appearing in the transcript of the proceeding, it is
ORDERED that respondent's Motion in Limine, filed October 4, 2022, is denied as moot.
