Shahab Makanvand 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. It is mostly about substantiation, and petitioner moved without objection on March 4, 2022 for a continuance. We spoke with the parties on March 14 to gauge progress. Both reported good cooperation in informal discovery and agreement on most items, with just a bit more time needed to wrap the case up. A brief continuance is reasonable under the circumstances, and it is

ORDERED that petitioner's March 4, 2022 motion 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 May 16, 2022 the parties shall submit settlement documents or file a status report describing their progress. 1
