               moved for penalties on account of delay and for other                  
               reasons, under sec. 6673(a)(1), I.R.C.  Trusts P3, P4,                 
               and P5 concede all adjustments and the accuracy-related                
               penalty.  R concedes items of P3, P4, and P5 taxed to                  
               either P1 or P2 and certain other items of P1 and P2.                  
                    1.  Held:  Deficiencies and accuracy-related                      
               penalty with respect to P3, P4, and P5 sustained,                      
               subject to concession by R.                                            
                    2.  Held, further, P6 has failed to establish that                
               there is a proper party before the Court; we shall                     
               dismiss with respect to P6 for lack of jurisdiction.                   
                    3.  Held, further, P1 understated gross income by                 
               $166,042 on account of gross receipts of P3                            
               attributable to them under assignment of income                        
               doctrine.                                                              
                    4.  Held, further, P1 failed to substantiate

               by P4.                                                                 
                    5.  Held, further, P1 are liable for accuracy-                    
               related penalties under sec. 6662(a), I.R.C.

               I.R.C.
