GWA, LLC, GEORGE A. WEISS, TAX MATTERS PARTNER, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Albert G. Lauber Judge
This case was tried at a two-week special session in Washington, D.C., from September 12 to 23, 2022. At the conclusion of the trial the Court indicated that the record would be left open until November 22, 2022, to permit the parties to file additional stipulations of facts with attached exhibits. We later extended that deadline to March 3, 2023.
On December 21, 2022, the parties filed, at docket entry #193, a document containing, as attachments to the Fifth Supplemental Stipulation of Facts, Exhibits 540-J through 799-J. On January 19, 2023, the parties contacted the Court explaining that Exhibit 727-J should have been redacted in accordance with the Court's protective Order dated August 30, 2022. On February 3, 2023, the parties filed a First Amendment to Exhibits to Fifth Stipulation of Facts consisting of Exhibits 540-J through 799-J and a properly redacted Exhibit 727-J.
Upon due consideration, it is
ORDERED that docket entry # 193, consisting of Exhibits 540-J through 799-J to the Fifth Supplemental Stipulation of Facts, is sealed and not made part of the Court's public record in this case. The sealed documents shall be retained by the Court in a sealed file which shall not be opened for inspection by any person or entity except by Order of the Court.
