          petitioner lacks capacity under Rule 60(c) to invoke this Court's           
          jurisdiction.                                                               
          Background                                                                  
          Hanna & Associates, P.C., formerly Mark J. Hanna, P.C. was a                
          corporation organized under the laws of the State of Texas.  On             
          February 2, 1994, Mark J. Hanna, petitioner's sole shareholder,             
          adopted a resolution to dissolve the corporation.  On February              
          24, 1994, petitioner filed a certificate of dissolution with the            
          Texas secretary of state resulting in petitioner's dissolution              
          pursuant to Tex. Bus. Corp. Act Ann. art. 6.06 (West 1994).                 
               Petitioner's 1993 and 1994 Federal income tax returns were             
          filed on March 15, 1994, and September 18, 1995, respectively.              
               On February 26, 1997, respondent issued a notice of                    
          deficiency to petitioner determining deficiencies in and                    
          penalties on petitioner's Federal income taxes as follows:                  
          Penalties                                                                   
          Year           Deficiency         Sec. 6662(a)                              
          1993           $31,450             $6,290                                   
          1994           13,474              2,695                                    



          1(...continued)                                                             
          respondent's motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction, arguing            
          on alternative grounds that petitioner lacks capacity to invoke             
          this Court's jurisdiction.  Since we find for respondent based on           
          the original motion to dismiss, respondent's alternative argument           
          raised in the amended motion is moot.

          effect for the taxable years in issue, and all Rule references
