Valerie J. Price Petitioner v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Mark V. Holmes Judge
This case was on the Court's May 24, 2021 trial calendar for New York City. In it, Ms. Price seeks innocent-spouse relief from a joint tax liability that she currently shares with her ex. The IRS office whose purpose is to try to settle cases - IRS Appeals - didn't have a meaningful chance to discuss this case with Ms. Price because the administrative file in the case didn't make its way there in time. Respondent has reported that the file was found and received by the correcct Appeals Office. He expects that Office's work to be done by mid-June, and it is therefore
ORDERED that respondent file another status report on or before June 16, 2022 to describe the parties' progress toward settlement at IRS Appeals.
