- 2 - Background On September 23, 1994, respondent issued a notice of defi- ciency (notice) to petitioners that determined certain deficien- cies in, additions to, and accuracy-related penalties on their Federal income tax (tax) for 1988, 1989, and 1990. Respondent determined in the notice, inter alia, that petitioners received a constructive dividend (constructive dividend) during each of the years 1989 and 1990 from an entity called East Oregon Cattle Company (EOCC) in an amount equal to the fair rental value of a house located on property in Jackson County, Oregon (Modoc property), which respondent determined EOCC owned and in which petitioners lived without paying rent during each of those years. This case was calendared for trial at the Court's trial session in Portland, Oregon, that began on October 2, 1995. On October 4, 1995, the parties submitted to the Court a stipulated decision document (stipulated decision document) that was signed by counsel for respondent and by petitioners, who were not at that time represented by counsel, and that reflected the agree- ment of the parties as to the amounts, if any, of petitioners' deficiencies in, additions to, and accuracy-related penalties on their tax for the years at issue. On October 16, 1995, the Court entered a decision in this case pursuant to the agreement of the parties as reflected in the stipulated decision document.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Next
