          Thereafter, Gibb was assigned to investigate Coral and Campbell             
          for violating sections 6700 and 6701.                                       
               An injunction case was filed by the Government against                 
          Campbell on April 2, 1984, in the United States District Court,             
          Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division (District Court).               
          Gibb was assigned to assist the Department of Justice attorneys             
          with the Campbell case.                                                     
               In response to interrogatories in the Campbell case, a list            
          of all U.S. entities contracting with Coral (the project list)              
          was filed with the District Court on January 14, 1987.  The                 
          project list did not contain taxpayer identification numbers,               
          addresses, or individuals involved in any of the listed entities            
          that had entered into contracts with Coral or the year that such            
          contracts were entered.  Spencer Medical's 1983 contract is                 
          reflected as client number "89 Spencer Medical Associates".                 
               The project list was first located by Gibb in February 1987.           
          Of the 172 contracts on the project list, approximately 125 had             
          been identified prior to the location of the list.  Prior to the            
          discovery of the project list, Spencer Medical had not been                 
          identified by the IRS as one of the entities contracting with               
          Coral.                                                                      
               Partnership adjustments attributable to contracts entered              
          into by other entities, unrelated to Spencer Medical, with Coral            
          in 1982 were litigated in Agro Science Co. v. Commissioner, T.C.            
          Memo. 1989-687, affd. 934 F.2d 573 (5th Cir. 1991).  Spencer
