Peter Salas & Marianne Salas Petitioners v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Respondent
ORDER
Maurice B. Foley Chief Judge.
Respondent's answer to the petition in this case is currently due on or before November 2, 2021. On October 28, 2021, respondent filed (1) a motion to extend time to move or file answer, and (2) a motion for leave to file out of time motion to extend time to move or file answer along with a concurrently lodged motion to extend time to move or file answer. Respondent indicates that petitioners do not object to the extension of time he requests. We will grant respondent's motion to extend time to move or file answer, and strike the unnecessary motion for leave to file out of time motion to extend time to move or file answer and the concurrently lodged motion to extend time to move or file answer.
Upon due consideration, it is
ORDERED that respondent's motion to extend time to move or file answer, filed October 28, 2021, is granted and the due date for respondent to file an answer or move with respect to the petition is extended to November 23, 2021. It is further
ORDERED that respondent's motion for leave to file out of time motion to extend time to move or file answer, filed October 28, 2021, and the motion to extend time to move or file answer, lodged October 28, 2021, are stricken from the Court's record in this case. 1
