                                       - 45 -                                         
          specified in section 1256(f)(3)(B).  However, she failed to do              
          so.                                                                         
               On the record before us, we find that Ms. Gordon has failed            
          to show that there is no basis in fact or in law within the                 
          meaning of section 6013(e)(2)(B) for the claimed 1988 NOL deduc-            
          tion and that that item constitutes a grossly erroneous item                
          within the meaning of that section.18                                       
               Based on our review of the entire record before us, we find            
          that Ms. Gordon is not entitled to innocent spouse relief under             
          section 6013(e)(1) with respect to the portion of the understate-           
          ment of tax for 1988 that is attributable to the claimed 1988 NOL           
          deduction.                                                                  
               To reflect the foregoing and the concessions of the parties,           


                                                  Decisions will be entered           
                                             under Rule 155.                          










          18  Consequently, we shall not address whether Ms. Gordon satis-            
          fies sec. 6013(e)(1)(D) with respect to the portion of the                  
          understatement of tax for 1988 that is attributable to the                  
          claimed 1988 NOL deduction.
