MICHAEL WELCH & KATHERINE B. WELCH, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent
ORDER
Mark V. Holmes, Judge
This case was on the December 18, 2023 Los Angeles, California trial calendar. The parties recently reported they are continuing to work together to resolve the remaining issues. Respondent's counsel is awaiting documentation and information from a third party. They believe that additional time will allow for resolution of the case or further narrowing of the issues to be tried.
In a substantiation case, this means a bit more time is likely to lead to a settlement, and it is therefore
ORDERED that on or before August 2, 2024 the parties submit decision documents or file a joint status report describing their progress in moving toward settlement or narrowing the issues to be tried.
