            Germany to be with her husband; she lived there for 3 or 4                                     
            years. While in Germany, Linda had a child and thereafter worked                               
            as a teacher at a military installation.                                                       
                  Financial Responsibilities                                                               
                  Mrs. Quinn was responsible for paying the family bills with                              
            her own or Mr. Quinn's funds, balancing the checkbook, and                                     
            handling the family bank accounts. Mr. Quinn gave Mrs. Quinn his                               
            West Pine paychecks which she deposited into one of their                                      
            accounts. She also prepared the Quinns' Federal income tax                                     
            returns for the years at issue.                                                                
                  Knowledge of West Pine's Operations                                                      
                  Mrs. Quinn had no knowledge of West Pine's operations or                                 
            financial obligations other than what she garnered from the West                               
            Pine checks she wrote out under Mr. Quinn's direction. Mrs.                                    
            Quinn was unaware of West Pine's customers, suppliers, or                                      
            creditors. From writing out those checks, Mrs. Quinn knew West                                 
            Pine had employees by the names of Devers and Hobbs, in addition                               
            to Mr. Quinn and Mr. Gaskins. When she did not receive his                                     
            paycheck from Mr. Quinn, she thought that he had not been paid.                                
            She thought that Mr. Quinn did not always receive his paycheck                                 
            on time, because he paid the other men first and then himself                                  
            when sufficient funds were available. Other than his paychecks                                 
            Mrs. Quinn knew of no other funds Mr. Quinn received from West                                 
            Pine.                                                                                          
                  Mrs. Quinn never visited any West Pine work sites. Mrs.
