          in Schedule B, Other Information, line 6, "Does this partnership            
          have any foreign partners?".  We conclude that the Partnership              
          had no foreign partners for either year.                                    
               The only partnership items reported on the Forms 1065 filed            
          in 1992 and 1993 were losses of the Partnership in the amounts of           
          $359,285.96 and $416,000, respectively.                                     
               Respondent issued a notice of deficiency to petitioner and             
          Elizabeth on March 20, 1996, for their 1992 and 1993 taxable                
          years.  The principal adjustments to income as determined by                
          respondent in the notice of deficiency represent adjustments to             
          petitioner's allocable share of income from the Partnership in              
          1992 and 1993 in the amounts of $293,577 and $107,297,                      
          respectively, and the inclusion in income of certain guaranteed             
          payments in 1992 and 1993 of $55,286 and $56,000, respectively,             
          all of which stemmed from respondent's disallowance of losses               
          attributable to the Partnership for those years during a related            
          partnership examination.  Other adjustments to income were                  
          computational in nature.  In addition, respondent determined that           
          petitioner and Elizabeth were liable for accuracy-related                   
          penalties for 1992 and 1993 pursuant to section 6662(a).                    
               Petitioner filed his petition on June 27, 1996.  On December           
          19, 1996, the Court issued a Notice Setting Case for Trial in               
          Washington, D.C. on May 19, 1997; attached thereto was a Standing           
          Pre-trial Order.  The Notice states "YOUR FAILURE TO COOPERATE              
          MAY * * * RESULT IN DISMISSAL OF THE CASE AND ENTRY OF DECISION
