                        CHRISTA KARIN MUELLER, Petitioner v.                          
                    COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent                      


               Docket No. 3336-95.                     Filed July 19, 2001.           

                    P and H filed a joint return for 1986.  R                         
               determined a deficiency in tax on account of omission                  
               of embezzlement income and gain from liquidation of                    
               corporation, both items attributable to H.  R also

               substantial understatement of income.  P challenges                    
               deficiency and asks relief from liability under                        
               sec. 6015, I.R.C., as a so-called innocent spouse.                     
                    1.  Held:  P and H omitted from income                            
               embezzlement income and gain (in a reduced amount) of                  
               H.                                                                     
                    2.  Held, further, P has failed to show error in                  
               the determination of sec. 6661, I.R.C., addition to tax                
               for substantial understatement of income.                              
                    3.  Held, further, P has failed to show                           
               entitlement to relief from liability under sec. 6015,                  
               I.R.C.
