          This matter is before us on the Commissioner's Motion for Summary

               Petitioners, Mayer and Ninette Stiskin, are husband and                
          wife.  They resided in New York, New York, at the time their                
          petition in this case was filed.  Use of the word petitioner in             
          the singular will refer to petitioner husband.  In 1980,                    
          petitioner became a limited partner in Opal Leasing Associates              
          ("Opal Leasing" or "the partnership"), a limited partnership.               
          His interest in Opal Leasing continued at least into 1982.                  
               On June 13, 1986, the Commissioner issued a notice of the              
          foregoing deficiency to petitioners for the taxable year 1982.
