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. We continued the case to let Ms. Price have a chance to settle her case there. Respondent recently reported that the Appeals Office continues to work on the case, so it is
ORDERED that respondent file another status report on or before September 9, 2021 to describe the parties' progress toward settlement at IRS Appeals.
