THOMAS S. POWERS, ET AL., Petitioners, v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Tamara W. Ashford Judge.
On April 20 and April 21, 2023, pursuant to the Court's January 20, 2023, Order, respondent and petitioners respectively filed Status Reports in Docket Nos. 26935-13 and 26936-13, apprising the Court of the then present status of these consolidated cases. Just like as previously reported, respondent reports that he continues to believe that the parties are close to settling Docket No. 26935-13 and that additional time is needed to resolve the recently discovered jurisdictional matter with his National Office in Docket No. 26936-13. Just like as previously reported, petitioners report that a proposed settlement agreement with respondent's modifications is under consideration by the parties in Docket No. 26935-13 and that respondent is reviewing his position in Docket No. 26936-13. According to petitioners, they concur with respondent's assessment that additional time is still needed to complete settlement negotiations and resolve other issues under consideration by respondent. Upon due consideration, it is hereby
ORDERED that the parties shall, on or before July 25, 2023, file status reports, separately or jointly, apprising the Court of the then present status of these cases.
