EILEEN G. YUEN, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent


ORDER

KATHLEEN KERRIGAN, CHIEF JUDGE

Petitioner filed the petition in this case on May 30, 2022, seeking review of a notice of deficiency dated March 7, 2022, issued to petitioner for tax year 2018. On January 15, 2022, petitioner filed a Motion to Compel Discovery. However, further review indicates that petitioner's Motion to Compel Discovery appears to be more akin to a Motion to Dismiss.

In a deficiency case where the Court has jurisdiction, Internal Revenue Code section 7459(d) generally requires the Court to enter a decision as to the amount of the deficiency, if any. Settles v. Commissioner, 138 T.C. 372, 374 (2012). Because this case is based on a notice of deficiency, the Court is required to enter a decision and, accordingly, the petition in this case may not be withdrawn with or without prejudice.

Upon due consideration, it is

ORDERED that petitioner's Motion to Compel Discovery, filed January 15, 2023, is recharacterized as petitioner's Motion to Dismiss. It is further

ORDERED that petitioner's Motion to Dismiss is denied. It is further

ORDERED that, on or before March 24, 2023, the parties shall either (1) submit stipulated decision documents so this case may be concluded, or (2) file status reports (preferably a joint report) with the Court concerning the then-present status of this case.
