          deeds, and the seller and buyer would have no further obligations           
          to each other.                                                              
               On or about June 5, 1984, all partners, other than Derrick,            
          contributed funds to the partnerships as initial capital                    
          contributions.  At about the same time (early June 1984), the               
          partners executed written, formal partnership agreements, which             
          stated that they were "effective as of December 15, 1983."                  
          Subsequently in June 1984, each partnership admitted additional             
          partners by means of capital contributions and execution of the             
          latest written agreements.  In 1984, the partnerships elected an            
          interim closing of their books on the basis that the condominium            
          sales occurred in December 1983, in order to allocate profit and            
          loss between the original and new partners.                                 
               Each partnership timely paid the July 2, 1984, installment             
          to the seller, and the escrow agent recorded documents in                   
          accordance with the written agreements.  The source of the July             
          2, 1984, installment payments, for each partnership, was                    
          approximately $1 million from capital contributions and                     
          approximately $4,200,000 attributable to nonrecourse loans from             
          Western Savings.  The loans were amortized on a 30-year schedule            
          subject to an 8-year call, and included shared appreciation                 
          provisions for the lender.  Legal title to the condominiums did             
          not pass to the partnerships until on or after July 2, 1984.                
               During November 1984, Derrick represented the partnerships             
          before the condominium owners association, and financial
