                                        - 6 -                                         
          section 6654 of $3,546.47.2  See sec. 7491(c).  The Forms 1099-             
          MISC show that petitioner received $920 of taxable income in                
          1998.  The Forms 1099-R show that petitioner received taxable               
          distributions of $214,756.96.  One Form 1099-R shows that he                
          received an early distribution of $184,802 from an IRA account              
          for which no exceptions to the 10-percent penalty imposed by                
          section 72(t)(1) apply.  Petitioner’s Form 1040 for 1998 and the            
          Forms 1099 show that he only paid $5,629 (withheld) in tax for              
          1998; thus, he paid no estimated tax.  Petitioner did not provide           
          respondent with any evidence showing that respondent’s                      
          determination of his tax liability is incorrect, or give any                
          reason for not doing so; thus, there is no genuine issue for                
          trial within the meaning of Rule 121(d).  We conclude that                  
          respondent is entitled to summary judgment and that petitioner is           
          liable for a total deficiency of $89,388 ($70,778 + $130 +                  
          $18,480) and an addition to tax of $3,546.47 under section 6654.            
          B.   Respondent’s Motion for Imposition of a Penalty Under                  
               Section 6673                                                           
               The Court may require the taxpayer to pay a penalty to the             
          United States of not more than $25,000 if the taxpayer instituted           
          or maintained proceedings primarily for delay, if the taxpayer's            



          the additional tax under sec. 72(t)(1) is $18,480, not $21,476.             
               2  This amount is less than the amount respondent determined           
          because the sec. 72(t)(1) penalty is less than respondent                   
          determined, thereby reducing the total tax due on which the sec.            
          6654 addition to tax is calculated.
