                                       - 12 -                                         
          that the Court of Appeals opinion “in no way concludes this                 
          litigation”.  Wechsler v. United States, 2000 WL 713407 (S.D.N.Y.           
          2000).                                                                      
               While Wechsler may be distinguishable on its facts, it is              
          also clear that the Court of Appeals’ reversal in that case left            
          open the possibility that the Tax Court might determine that the            
          6-year period of limitations remained open after considering the            
          matter on remand.  To the extent Wechsler is inconsistent with              
          our holding in the instant case, we respectfully disagree with              
          Wechsler.                                                                   
               Based on the facts before us, we hold that the “amount” of             
          our previous deficiency determination was not “disallowed in                
          whole or in part” within the meaning of section 7486 when the               
          Court of Appeals reversed and remanded for further proceedings.             

                                             An appropriate order will                
                                        be issued denying petitioner’s                
                                        motion.
