          tax for negligence and the increased rate of interest, with                 
          attachments, and a memorandum in support of such motion.                    
          Subsequently, respondent filed objections, with attachments, and            
          memoranda in support thereof, and petitioners Gollin and Fishbach           
          thereafter filed reply memoranda.  For reasons discussed in more            
          detail at the end of this opinion, and also in Farrell v.                   
          Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1996-295, these motions shall be denied.

          whether petitioners Gollin and Fishbach are liable for additions            
          to tax under section 6659 for underpayments of tax attributable             
          to valuation overstatements.                                                
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT
