Dan E. Patterson Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Emin Toro Judge
This case was assigned to the undersigned judge for trial or other disposition on January 31, 2020. As requested by the parties, this case was being held in abeyance pending a final decision of the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in Coffey v. Commissioner, 987 F.3d 808 (8th Cir. 2021), rev'g and remanding 150 T.C. 60 (2018). That case is now final, certiorari having been denied on January 10, 2022.
On February 3, 2022, the Court held a conference call with the parties to discuss the current status of the case. Upon due consideration, it is hereby
ORDERED that, on or before April 4, 2022, 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.
