Cecil B. Kyte Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent

Mark V. Holmes Judge

ORDER

Mark V. Holmes Judge

This case is on the Court's April 4, 2022 trial calendar for Los Angeles, California. On March 7, 2022, respondent moved without objection to continue it. We spoke with the parties on March 15 to gauge progress. Petitioners report that the case raises mostly issues of substantiation that should be capable of settlement at the IRS Appeals Office, though that Office now resends many issues back to IRS Exam. Both parties have been cooperating in informal discovery, which makes it reasonable to try to settle as much as possible at Appeals. It is therefore

ORDERED that respondent's March 7, 2022 motion for continuance is granted in that this case is stricken from the Court's April 4, 2022 trial calendar. It is also

ORDERED that this division of the Court retains jurisdiction. It is also

ORDERED that on or before June 16, 2022 the parties shall file a status report that briefly describes their progress toward settlement at IRS Appeals.
