          Petitioners resided in Ely, Minnesota, at the time they filed their         
          petition.                                                                   
          Background                                                                  
               Douglass H. Bartley (petitioner) received a bachelor of arts           
          degree in business administration from the University of Arizona in         
          1970 and a juris doctor degree from the University of Arizona Law           
          School in 1973.  Petitioner had a private law practice in                   
          Milwaukee, Wisconsin, until 1980; at that time, he moved to                 
          Washington, D.C., and began working at Washington Gaslight Co.  In          
          approximately 1983, he returned to his private practice in                  
          Milwaukee.                                                                  



               1    On May 5, 1998, respondent filed a motion to impose a             
          sec. 6673 penalty.  On July 10, 1998, respondent filed a motion             
          to withdraw the May 5 motion.  On July 14, 1998, we granted                 
          respondent's motion to withdraw the motion to impose a sec. 6673            
          penalty.
