                                       - 13 -                                         
          when the taxpayer has instituted proceedings primarily for delay,           
          the taxpayer's position is frivolous or groundless, or the                  
          taxpayer unreasonably failed to pursue administrative remedies.             
          Respondent has not requested that the Court exercise its                    
          authority, and the Court declines to do so sua sponte in the                
          instant proceedings.  However, petitioners are cautioned that               
          this sanction is available to the Court and will be considered if           
          petitioners persist in pursuing frivolous arguments before this             
          Court.                                                                      
                                             An appropriate order will be             
                                        issued, and decisions will be                 
                                        entered for respondent.
