-4- in 1994. Respondent determined that petitioner's gain on the sale of his residence was equal to the net sale price of the property. C. Petition Petitioner sent a letter to the Court which was filed as an imperfect petition because it did not comply with our Rules as to the form and content of a petition. The Court ordered petitioner to file an amended petition. In the amended petition, petitioner contended that respondent erred in: (1) Determining that all of the proceeds from the sale of petitioner's residence were capital gain, and (2) imposing a direct tax or an indirect tax on petitioner's income. At a time not stated in the record after petitioner filed the amended petition, and before trial, respondent conceded that petitioner had an adjusted basis in the residence of $137,386, instead of zero, as determined in the notice of deficiency. D. Pretrial Memorandum Petitioner submitted a pretrial memorandum in which he listed as issues for trial: (1) Whether respondent violated petitioner's rights of due process of law and equal protection under the law; and (2) whether respondent deprived, took, denied, or disparaged "petitioner of rights with mere 'policy', 'custom', 'regulation' and 'color of law', lacking enactment or enabling clause or an appropriate court under Art. III, sec. 2."Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next
