RAYMOND W. MARTIN, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Emin Toro Judge
On January 23, 2023, the Court held a conference call with the parties to discuss the current status of the case. Petitioner made an informal request for a continuance to which respondent did not object. The Court held petitioner's request in abeyance to give the parties the opportunity to contact a volunteer from a tax clinic in Kansas City, Missouri.
On January 30, 2023, this case was called from the Court's Kansas City, Missouri, trial session. Counsel for respondent appeared and was heard. There was no appearance by or on behalf of petitioner.
Upon due consideration, and for cause appearing more fully in the transcript of the proceeding, it is hereby
ORDERED that this case is stricken from the January 30, 2023, Kansas City, Missouri, trial session and continued. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before March 31, 2023, the parties shall file with the Court either a joint report (or, if that is not expedient, then separate reports) describing the status of the case or a stipulated decision document. It is further
ORDERED that jurisdiction of this case is retained by the undersigned judge.
