Estate of Birnie M. Davenport, Deceased, Patricia L. Vestal, Personal Representative - Page 27

                                                - 27 -                                                   
            15, 1980.  Secs. 6019, 6075(b).  Petitioner has stipulated that                              
            the co-personal representatives of Birnie's estate filed a                                   
            Federal gift tax return for the quarter ended September 30, 1980,                            
            on November 7, 1991.  Petitioner has made no argument with                                   
            respect to the section 6651(a)(1) addition to tax, except by                                 
            implication of its argument that no gift was made.  We rejected                              
            that argument supra, and petitioner has not proven that its                                  
            failure to file timely was due to reasonable cause.  Accordingly,                            
            we sustain respondent's determination of the applicable addition                             
            to tax under section 6651(a)(1).                                                             
                  To reflect the foregoing,                                                              
                                                 Appropriate orders will                                 
                                                       be issued, and decisions will                     
                                                       be entered under Rule 155.
