ANDREW BILL KATAKIS, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Albert G. Lauber, Judge
On January 11, 2022, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued its opinion in Li v. Commissioner, 22 F.4th 1014 (D.C. Cir. 2022). The D.C. Circuit held that the Tax Court lacks jurisdiction over certain determinations by the I.R.S. Whistleblower Office. On October 31, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court denied a petition for certiorari in Li. No. 22-185, 2022 WL 16541982.
On November 10, 2022, respondent filed a status report in the instant case, stating that he requires additional time to determine his position in the case.
In consideration of the foregoing, it is
ORDERED that, on or before December 29, 2022, respondent shall file an appropriate motion or status report informing the Court of the then-present status of the case.
