-29- sometimes referred to as Watkins.19 During 1982, Maximum Management wrote 47 checks totaling $6,049.81 to Watkins.20 These 1981 and 1982 payments by Maximum Management to Watkins were for Watkins' services in taking care of petitioners' children. All $5,525.92 ($300 to Monica, plus $5,225.92 to Watkins) was 1981 net profit of Maximum Management, and so was 1981 income to petitioners. All $6,049.81 was 1982 net profit of Maximum Management, and so was 1982 income to petitioners. 18(...continued) amounts as to 8 of these 44 checks from the only source that respondent cites. Our finding is in accordance with the sum of the amounts in the cited exhibit, which is $125.37 less than the sum of the amounts in respondent's proposed finding of fact. 19 The cited source for respondent's proposed finding of fact shows that five other checks, totaling $562.51, were written by Maximum Management to Watkins between Jan. 16, 1981, and Feb. 13, 1981. Respondent has not included these checks in the proposed finding of fact; we treat this as respondent's concession that these five payments by Maximum Management to Watkins did not result in income to petitioners. 20 Respondent's proposed findings of fact list three additional checks to Watkins, totaling $352.97, and ask us to find that those checks also gave rise to income to petitioners. The first of these checks does not appear in the exhibit that respondent cites as the sole source for the proposed finding. The second of these checks does appear in the cited exhibit, but was voided; indeed the next check, which respondent also includes in the proposed finding of fact, shows that it was written to replace the voided check. The third of these checks, is shown in respondent's proposed finding of fact as being made out to Watkins in the amount of $119.83; in the cited exhibit it is made out to Central Trust Co. in the amount of $3,874.05. We conclude that none of these three checks is income to petitioners.Page: Previous 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 Next
