Eyal Yechezkell & Yifat Yechezkell, et al.,Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE,Respondent
ORDER
Mark V. Holmes Judge.
These four related microcaptive-insurance cases are on the Court's March 6, 2023 trial calendar for Dallas, Texas. They've all been continued before and on January 27, 2023 the parties moved to continue them again. We spoke with the parties on February 14, 2023 and learned that they've reached a basis for settlement in all of them. Computations are proving to be a bit difficult because of a nonstandard accounting issue in one of them. They will also need to draft a closing agreement.
Some time on a status-report track is reasonable, and it is
ORDERED that the above-docketed cases are consolidated for trial, briefing, and opinion. It is also
ORDERED that the parties' January 27, 2023 motions for continuance are granted in that these cases are stricken from the Court's March 6, 2023 trial calendar for Dallas, Texas. It is also
ORDERED that this division of the Court retains jurisdiction. It is also
ORDERED that on or before May 15, 2023 the parties shall submit settlement documents or file a status report describing their progress.
