SUZANNE MONTES, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent


ORDER

Mark V. Holmes, Judge

This case is on the Court's September 12, 2021 San Francisco, California trial calendar. It arises from unreported gambling income and a settlement of a lawsuit that Ms. Montes reached with the City of San Francisco. The Commissioner moved without opposition for a continuance. We spoke with them today to discuss how to move the case forward. The first step is for Ms. Montes to go through her records of the lawsuit, and to request some records from others that show gambling losses likely to offset her gambling income. She promised to do so in the next six weeks. She also promised to send them to the IRS lawyer handling her case. This is a good plan to get the case moving, and it is therefore

ORDERED that respondent's August 11, 2022 motion for a continuance is granted in that this case is stricken from the Court's September 12, 2022 trial calendar for San Francisco, California. It is also

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

ORDERED that on or before October 24, 2022 respondent shall file a status report describing the parties' progress in settling the case or narrowing the issues to be tried.
