          (1) that he is entitled to the capital loss that he claimed for              
          1992 with respect to the sale of the Church Street property and              
          (2) that he is not required to recognize for that year the gain              
          of $23,000 that respondent determined in the notice for 1991 and             
          1992.91                                                                      
          Claimed Capital Gain:  Sanchez Street Property                               
               In the notice for 1993, respondent determined that, instead             
          of the $11,315 gain that petitioner and Ms. Brodsky reported in              
          their 1993 return with respect to the sale of the Sanchez Street             
          property, they have a gain from that sale of $48,000, all of                 
          which they must recognize for 1993.  Respondent made that deter-             
          mination because petitioner and Ms. Brodsky had not established              
          their basis in the Sanchez Street property when it was sold.92               
               In the 1993 joint return, petitioner and Ms. Brodsky re-                
          ported that they sold their interest in the Sanchez Street                   
          property for $48,000, that their adjusted basis in that property             
          at the time of that sale was $36,685, and that they realized a               
          gain of $11,315 on that sale.                                                
               On brief, petitioner abandons the position that he and Ms.              
          Brodsky took in the 1993 joint return.  Instead, petitioner                  
          advances the following contentions on brief with respect to the              


               91On the record before us, we further find that petitioner              
          has failed to carry his burden of establishing that he is enti-              
          tled to the capital loss carryover to 1993 that he claimed in the            
          1993 joint return and that respondent disallowed.                            
               92Respondent also determined in the 1993 notice, as respon-             
          dent had determined in the 1991 and 1992 notice, that petitioner             
          and Ms. Brodsky are not entitled to the $27,000 capital loss                 
          carryover from 1992 that they claimed in their 1993 joint return.            
          We sustain that determination.  See supra note 91.
