5 the IRS apparently determined a "fine" or "penalty" in regard to the $4,172 amount. In contesting all "unlawful fines and/or penalties" in his petition to this Court, petitioner is inviting this Court to consider all of the 1993 "fines and/or penalties" determined by the IRS. We decline to do so. Petitioner has not contested on any specific ground respondent's determination that he is liable for a 10-percent additional tax on his 1993 IRA distribution. Since petitioner fails to qualify for any of the statutory exceptions under section 72(t)(2), we hold that petitioner is liable for the 10-percent additional tax on distributions from a qualified retirement plan for 1993 as provided in section 72(t)(1). Respondent is sustained on this issue. To reflect the foregoing, Decision will be entered for respondent.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5
