                                                 - 8 -                                                   
            mailed the notice of deficiency for 1990 to petitioner's last                                
            known address and that such notice is valid under section 6212.                              
                  We are also satisfied that the notice of deficiency for                                
            1991, 1992, and 1993 was mailed to petitioner's last known                                   
            address.  The record indicates that in January 1995, petitioner                              
            advised Revenue Officer Pittman that he was residing at the                                  
            Lithia Springs address and that his mailing address was the                                  
            Austell address.  In addition, on August 17, 1995, petitioner                                
            filed his 1994 tax return listing the Lithia Springs address as                              
            his current address.  We are unable to find that petitioner                                  
            provided respondent with clear and concise notice that he had                                
            moved back to the Fayetteville address prior to the mailing of                               
            the notice of deficiency on September 15, 1995.  Under the                                   
            circumstances, we conclude that the notice of deficiency for                                 
            1991, 1992, and 1993 was mailed to petitioner at his last known                              
            address.  Consequently, we shall grant respondent's motion to                                
            dismiss for lack of jurisdiction.4                                                           
            To reflect the foregoing,                                                                    
            An order will be entered                                                                     
            granting respondent's Motion to                                                              
            Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction.                                                            

            4  Although petitioner cannot pursue his case in this Court,                                 
            he is not without a remedy.  Petitioner may pay the tax, file a                              
            claim for refund with the Internal Revenue Service, and if the                               
            claim is denied, sue for a refund in the Federal District Court                              
            or the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.  See McCormick v.                                       
            Commissioner, 55 T.C. 138, 142 (1970).
