- 13 - property which respondent determined was owned by EOCC, or on any other determination that respondent made in the notice. The Court entered its decision in this case based on the agreement of the parties reflected in the stipulated decision document as to the amounts of any deficiencies in, additions to, and accuracy- related penalties on petitioners' tax for 1988, 1989, and 1990. On the record before us, we find that petitioners have failed to establish that respondent's conduct while petitioners' case was pending before this Court rises to the level of "an intentional plan of deception designed to improperly influence the Court in its decision", Abatti v. Commissioner, 86 T.C. at 1325, let alone that any such plan, if it had been established by petitioners, "has had such an effect on the Court", id. We further find that petitioners have failed to show that the decision entered in this case is the result of any other situa- tion that warrants our exercise of our discretion under Rule 162 to grant petitioners' motion. To reflect the foregoing, An order will be issued denying petitioners' motion for leave to file a motion to vacate decision out of time embodying petitioners' motion to vacate decision.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
