          applied those amounts to satisfy liabilities for other taxable              
          years in which unpaid assessments were pending, as follows:                 
                    Amount         Amount of Original Date of Original                
          Year      Transferred        Assessment         Assessment                  
          1978      $1,800              $7,408         05/14/79                       
          1984           236       6,662          12/02/85                            
          1989      30,561         23,130              02/03/92                       

               The transfer in the amount of $30,561 from decedent's                  
          account for the taxable year 1980 resulted in an overpayment for            
          the 1989 taxable year.  Respondent issued a refund for the 1989             
          taxable year on April 19, 1993, in the amount of $12,376, of                
          which $1,163 was interest.  The refund appears to have resulted             
          from abatement of interest and penalties made after the $30,561             
          reallocation from 1980 in 1992, plus certain other overpayment              
          credits transferred.                                                        
               On March 9, 1998, petitioner made a payment in the amount of           
          $30,000.  Petitioner designated this payment to be applied toward           
          the deficiency for the taxable year 1980.  If any excess amount             
          remained, that amount was to be applied toward the deficiencies             
          for the 1981 and 1982 taxable years.  The record contains no                
          explanation as to why petitioner made this payment, and in this             
          particular amount.  Respondent credited $30,000 to petitioner's             
          account for the taxable year 1998.                                          
               Howard P. Newman (Newman), who represents petitioner in this           
          case, has been an attorney since January 1979.  He worked for
