such meetings because of my inability to get any
information from Petitioner Vernon W. Hartman,
Jr.
6. I have made myself available at all times,
both day and night, to meet with Petitioner
Vernon W. Hartman, Jr., including offering to
meet him at my home because of his "busy"
schedule.
7. Notwithstanding my flexibility and willing-

meaningful meetings and/or discussions with
Petitioner Vernon W. Hartman, Jr., to properly
prosecute his case.

(a) Each and every issue presented in the
case;
(b) as to each such issue, what efforts
peti-tioners have made to meet with
respondent's counsel and to exchange
documents and other information
necessary to agree upon and submit
the comprehensive stipulations for
trial required by Rule 91, Tax Court
Rules of Practice and Procedure; and
