          drawn on the Sam Han account was deposited into ANB No. 3, a                
          custodial account governed by the TRO.  On October 14, 1988, the            
          TRO was amended specifically to cover the Sam Han account.  The             
          account contained assets of $137,128 at yearend 1988.  Pursuant             
          to the settlement agreement, (i) in January 1991, petitioner and            
          his corporations received $94,722 and Northwest received nothing            
          from ANB No. 3, and (ii) on April 1, 1991, Northwest received the           
          balance remaining in the Sam Han account, which at that time was            
          $196,441.  See supra note 26.                                               
               The $450,000 that petitioner transferred to the Sam Han                
          account from corporate accounts, together with the “net” of                 
          $536,856 in funds taken from and not returned to the corporate              
          Albank No. 1 account by yearend, make up the $986,856 that                  
          respondent asserts in an amendment to his answer was diverted by            
          petitioner from his corporations in 1988.                                   
               Respondent contends that the entire $986,856 is ordinary               
          income which must be included in petitioner’s income for 1988.              
          In the alternative, respondent contends that the $986,856 should            
          be deemed a distribution from IL NA Tours in excess of                      
          petitioner’s basis in the stock which must be included in his               
          income for 1988.  The unreported income issue constitutes new               
          matter resulting in an increased deficiency.  Respondent has the            
          burden of proving any new matter or increased deficiency.  Rule
