                               UNITED STATES TAX COURT                                


             DORCHESTER INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED, ET AL.,1 Petitioners v.              
                    COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent                      


               Docket Nos. 20515-93, 20572-93,    Filed April 29, 1997.               
                         27121-93, 23092-94.                                          

                    R has moved for entry of decisions based on an                    
               agreement with Ps to settle these cases.  Two Ps argue                 
               that they never agreed to settle these cases and, even                 
               if they did, they have repudiated that agreement.                      
                    Held:  Ps entered into a settlement agreement with                
               R.  R's motions for entry of decision will be granted                  
               with respect to all dockets (except with regard to W).                 
               Cole v. Commissioner, 30 T.C. 665 (1958), affd. 272                    
               F.2d 13 (2d Cir. 1959), will not be followed to the                    
               extent that it indicates that a party to a settlement                  
               agreement that is not filed as a stipulation may                       
               repudiate that agreement up until (and including) the                  
               time the case is called for trial.                                     



          1    Cases of the following petitioners are consolidated                    
          herewith:  Frank H. Wheaton, Jr., and Mary B. Wheaton, docket               
          Nos. 20572-93, 27121-93, and 23092-94.
