                                       - 20 -                                         
          situations.  It is inappropriate that taxpayers who promptly pay            
          their taxes should have the cost of government and tax collection           
          improperly increased by frivolous arguments already fully                   
          considered and rejected by the courts.                                      
               Hence, petitioner received fair warning but has persisted in           
          disputing respondent’s determination.  The Court concludes that a           
          section 6673 penalty of $3,000 should be awarded to the United              
          States in this case.  To reflect the foregoing,                             

                                                  An appropriate order                
                                             granting respondent’s motion             
                                             and decision for respondent              
                                             will be entered.
