105 T. C. No. 29 UNITED STATES TAX COURT JOHN U. FAZI AND SYLVIA FAZI, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent Docket No. 13874-93. Filed December 19, 1995. P, a dentist, incorporated C and established three pension plans. P was an employee of C. Plan 2 was frozen in 1982. Plan 2 was merged into plan 1 in 1986. P dissolved C in 1986 and distributed all of the assets in the plan 1 trust to employees, including P, in 1987. We held in Fazi v. Commissioner, 102 T.C. 695 (1994) (Fazi I), that plan 1 was not qualified and its related trust was not exempt during 1985, 1986, and 1987. We also held that, except for amounts conceded by R, P was taxable in 1987 on the assets distributed to P from plan 1. In Fazi I, R conceded on brief that the taxable distribution to P from plan 1 for 1987 had to be reduced by contributions made on P's behalf for 1985 and 1986, including P's share of the amount merged from plan 2 to plan 1 during 1986. This concession was accepted without review or analysis of the underlying substantive issues related to the concession.Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Next
