          dismiss this case for lack of jurisdiction insofar as it relates            
          to adjustments arising from petitioners' interest in J & S World            
          Nurseries Limited Partnership (Nurseries).  At the time of the              
          filing of the petition herein, petitioners resided in Simi                  
          Valley, California.  Some of the facts have been stipulated and             
          are so found.  The stipulation of facts and attached exhibits are           
          incorporated herein by this reference.                                      
               During the years 1985 and 1986, petitioners were limited               
          partners in Nurseries.  Their interest was .45 percent and there            
          were over 100 partners in Nurseries.  On March 12, 1993, Form               
          870-P(AD), Settlement Agreement for Partnership Adjustments, was            
          executed by Harvey Minars, tax matters partner (TMP) for                    
          Nurseries and by Robert Rosenblatt, Associate Chief, New York               
          City Appeals on behalf of respondent.  The Form 870-P(AD)                   
          represented an offer made by the TMP of Nurseries and provided              
          that, if accepted by the Commissioner,                                      
               the treatment of partnership items under this agreement                
               will not be reopened in the absence of fraud,                          
               malfeasance, or misrepresentation of fact; and no claim                
               for refund or credit based on any change in the                        
               treatment of partnership items may be filed or                         
               prosecuted.                                                            
               This offer is made by the [TMP] and binds all non                      
               notice and other partners to the terms of the agreement                
               for whom the [TMP] may act under section 6224(c)(3) * *                
               *                                                                      
               In addition, the Form 870-P(AD) provided for the waiver of             
          the restrictions on assessment and collection of any deficiency
