          subdivision review analyst in the City's Public Works Department,           
          receiving wages from the City as follows:                                   
                         1990           $28,515                                       
                         1991           $28,481                                       
                         1992           $30,382                                       
          During the years under consideration, petitioner was married to             
          Betty A. Simmons (Mrs. Simmons).  Mrs. Simmons was employed by CPC          
          Intermountain Hospital (the hospital) throughout 1990, 1991, and            
          1992, and received wages from the hospital as follows:                      
                         1990           $ 9,330                                       
                         1991           $13,081                                       
                         1992           $13,911                                       
               Prior to 1990, petitioner and Mrs. Simmons had filed joint             
          income tax returns.  By 1990, petitioner had become a tax protester         
          and adopted tactics designed to evade the payment of tax and harass         
          those whom he thought were interfering with his scheme.  The first          
          thing petitioner did was to drop out of the commercial banking              
          system, and thereafter he dealt primarily in cash.  Then he                 
          attempted to stop withholding on his paychecks by filing false              
          Forms W-4.  Specifically, on April 16, 1991, he filed a Form W-4            
          with the City claiming 30 allowances; prior thereto, he had claimed         
          5 allowances that resulted in withholding close to his actual tax           
          liability.  Upon receipt of this Form W-4, the City notified the            
          Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in accordance with a regulatory              
          requirement.  The IRS responded to the City's notification
