                                        - 4 -                                         
          Petitioner failed to show that $5,243.13 of his bankruptcy estate           
          was used to pay his 1994-96 taxes.                                          
          B.   Whether Respondent’s Determination To Proceed With                     
               Collection Was an Abuse of Discretion                                  
               Petitioner contends that respondent’s determination to                 
          proceed with collection was an abuse of discretion because he               
          spent about $18,000 in prosecuting various claims against the               
          Government.  We disagree.  Petitioner is entitled to no credit              
          against his unpaid tax based on those claimed costs.                        
               We conclude that respondent’s determination to proceed with            
          collection of his 1994-96 tax liabilities was not an abuse of               
          discretion.                                                                 
                                                       Decision will be               
                                             entered for respondent.
