Various Individual Tax Returns, Petition Filed By Mr. And Mrs.
Walker, And Their Pretrial Activities

individual income tax returns for himself and Mrs. Walker.

returns for them. $he left the responsibility of filing their tax
returns to him. Mrs. Walker never sought to file a separate income tax

Mr. Walker's filing a joint individual income tax return for them.
