          00 and respondent’s motion in the case at docket No. 10002-00 in

               In respondent’s motions in the cases at docket Nos. 10001-00           
          and 10002-00, respondent also asks the Court to impose a penalty            
          under section 6673(a)(1) on petitioner in each of those cases.

               14As explained in respondent’s respective motions in the

          the income reported for each of the taxable years 1996 and 1997             
          by Herbst Management Trust 100 percent to Ms. Herbst, Mr. Herbst,           
          and Herbst Charitable Trust.  The amounts of such income attrib-            
          uted to Herbst Charitable Trust were reattributed to Ms. Herbst             
          and Mr. Herbst, which resulted in a duplication of said amounts             
          of income in the respective notices issued to Ms. Herbst and Mr.            
          Herbst.  As set forth in respondent’s respective motions in the             
          cases at docket Nos. 10001-00 and 10002-00 and in the respective            
          exhibits attached to those motions, the revised deficiencies for            
          Ms. Herbst for the taxable years 1996 and 1997 are $46,909 and              
          $55,145, respectively, and the revised deficiencies for Mr.                 
          Herbst for the taxable years 1996 and 1997 are $47,449 and                  
          $55,906, respectively.  Consistently, the revised accuracy-

          the taxable years 1996 and 1997 are $9,381.80 and $11,029,                  
          respectively, and the revised accuracy-related penalties under              
          sec. 6662(a) imposed on Mr. Herbst for the taxable years 1996 and           
          1997 are $9,489.80 and $11,181.20, respectively.
