IVORY P. SMAW, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Adam B. Landy Special Trial Judge
This case is scheduled for trial at the session of the Court to commence at Detroit, Michigan on April 11, 2022. On March 18, 2022, the parties filed a Proposed Stipulated Decision. In reviewing the submission, the Proposed Stipulated Decision suggests that an overpayment is due to petitioner, but the parties did not file a Settlement Stipulation. After inquiry by the undersigned's Chambers Administrator, respondent's counsel confirmed that the Proposed Stipulated Decision, as filed, is incorrect. The Court is therefore unable to process the parties' Proposed Stipulated Decision.
Upon due consideration, it is
ORDERED that this case is stricken from the above-referenced trial session, and the parties are excused from appearing at the calendar call on April 11, 2022. It is further
ORDERED that, on or before May 6, 2022, the parties shall electronically file a revised proposed stipulated decision or status report (preferably a joint report) to inform the Court of the then-present status of the case. It is further
ORDERED that the parties' Proposed Stipulated Decision, filed March 18, 2022, is hereby deemed stricken from the Court's record and shall not be viewable as part of this case. It is further
ORDERED that jurisdiction of this case is retained by the undersigned.
