T.C. Memo. 1999-32 UNITED STATES TAX COURT DAVID L. WIKSELL AND MARGARET ANN CARPENDER, Petitioners v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent* Docket No. 11752-91. Filed February 2, 1999. P filed a Motion for Reconsideration of our opinion in Wiksell v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1998-3, arguing that sec. 6015(c)(3)(C), I.R.C., enacted by sec. 3201(a), Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, Pub. L. 105-206, 112 Stat. 734, requires us to consider: (1) Whether P had "actual knowledge" of certain checks which gave rise to the deficiency, and (2) if so, whether P signed her 1984 and 1985 joint tax returns under duress. Held: Our opinion in Wiksell v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1998-3, has adequately addressed whether P had "actual knowledge" with respect to income, not reported on P's joint return, derived from the receipt of checks from her husband's company. Held, further, the issue of duress has previously been considered and rejected. Wiksell v. Commissioner, 90 F.3d 1459, 1462 (9th Cir. 1996), revg. and remanding T.C. Memo. 1994-99, on remand T.C. Memo. 1998-3. Held, further, P's Motion for Reconsideration is denied. *This opinion supplements our opinions in Wiksell v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1994-99, revd. and remanded 90 F.3d 1459 (9th Cir. 1996), and Wiksell v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1998-3.Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Next
