- 9 - Aerospace paid petitioner by means of checks at 2-week intervals in the amount of $2,000,5 which carried the notation "consulting fees". The $12,150 in self-employment income determined by respondent for 1989 consists of $6,150 in remuneration for petitioner's services paid by Charles River Computers (Charles River) and $6,000 from Solutions Plus, Inc.6 A Confidentiality Agreement entered into by petitioner and Charles River provided that petitioner would receive $750 per week for "� time" and makes reference to petitioner's performance of "consulting and other services". A provision in the agreement prohibiting petitioner from engaging in any other business during the term of the agreement was lined through. Petitioner did not provide specific descriptions of his work in 1989 except to claim that, as in 1987, such work was always performed on the purported employer's premises, was subject to established working hours, and was nondelegable. 5 One such check was for $1,900 instead of $2,000, which petitioner testified was due to the fact that he was "docked" one-half day's pay ($100) when he was absent from work one morning. 6 The only identification of the source of the 1989 amounts determined to be self-employment income was in petitioner's trial memorandum, where he appears to acknowledge that $6,150 of such amounts was from "Charles River Computers" and $6,000 was from "Solutions Plus". Petitioner does not, in any event, dispute that taxable income in these amounts was received.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Next
