- 30 - Pursuant to the 1987 and 1988 unsigned amended returns and voluntary payments, respondent assessed additional taxes in the amounts of $68,255 on September 17, 1992, for 1987, and $48,887 on September 1, 1992, for 1988. OPINION Issue 1. Assessments of Voluntary Payments Petitioners contend that their voluntary payments submitted with unsigned amended income tax returns were improperly assessed. After entry of the judgment of conviction in the criminal tax case against petitioner, and while it was on appeal, petitioners made the voluntary payments to respondent. In the notice of deficiency dated September 4, 1992, respondent determined that there were deficiencies in income taxes due from petitioners in the amounts of $67,485 and $49,419 for 1987 and 1988, respectively. In paragraph 3 of their petition filed on November 27, 1992, petitioners conceded the deficiencies in income taxes for 1987 and 1988. On August 10, 1994, petitioners filed an amended petition. In paragraph 2 they alleged that the deficiencies for 1987 and 1988 were in dispute. In paragraph 3 of the amended petition, however, they limited this "dispute" to an alleged error by respondent in assessing the deficiencies. The facts stated in paragraph 4 of the amended petition and the prayer for relief are centered around respondent's assessments of the taxes.Page: Previous 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 Next
