Hopefully Tyree Woodley, Docket No. 15662-15S, filed 2/15/17 is listening, because His Honor Big Julie, more properly styled Judge Julian I Jacobs, hereinafter HHBJJJIJ, has put him in first place on the designated hitter list today.

Tyree is coming up for trial in fewer than two weeks, but apparently wants out. At least, IRS’ counsel claims Tyree told him fuggedaboutit, or words to that effect.

But HHBJJJIJ wants to hear it from Tyree himself in person. So he called Tyree, and even gives Tyree’s telephone number in today’s order; remember Tax Court wants the fullest disclosure possible, so litigants, be aware – your life and miracles are up for grabs.

But Tyree wasn’t around, so to make sure that Tyree wants out and is prepared for the deficiency hit to the fullest extent, HHBJJJIJ tells Tyree to show, or call chambers (and to be fair, HHBJJJIJ gives his chambers telephone number in the order).

Should Tyree fail to take the hint, HHBJJJIJ has a new warning.

“PETITIONER’S FAILURE TO NOTIFY THE COURT AS TO WHETHER OR NOT HE OBJECTS TO THE COURT’S GRANTING RESPONDENT’S MOTION, OR BY FAILING TO APPEAR AT THE CALENDAR CALL FOR THE SESSION OF THE COURT COMMENCING FEBRUARY 27, 2017, IN PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, MAY RESULT IN THE COURT’S GRANTING RESPONDENT’S MOTION AND ENTERING OF A DECISION ADVERSE TO PETIITONER [sic].” Order, at pp. 1-2.
