Joel P. Rankin & Julie L. Rankin Petitioners v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Maurice B. Foley, Chief Judge
An imperfect petition commencing this case was filed on May 22, 2021. Petitioners seek review of the notice of deficiency dated February 22, 2021, issued to them for tax year 2018.
On September 7, 2021, petitioners filed a Letter Dated August 26, 2021. Among other things, in their Letter petitioners state/indicate that: (1) they no longer wish to dispute their proposed income tax liability for 2018; and (2) petitioners thus believe their Tax Court case should be closed. Under the circumstances, the Court will direct the parties to confer as to the present status of this case. It is therefore
ORDERED that at a reasonable date and time, but no later than by October 7, 2021, the parties shall confer as to the present status of this case, including (1) the issues and/or evidence concerning petitioners' proposed 2018 tax liability, and (2) whether the parties possibly might agree to submit proposed decision documents. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before October 27, 2021, respondent shall file a Report as to the then present status of this case.
