- 5 - petitioners’ attorney sent respondent six checks.2 Accompanying the checks was a letter, dated February 12, 1999, which stated, in part: If it has not already occurred, we request that the Service apply the cash bonds previously posted on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Hillenbrand for 1993, 1994, and 1995 to the tax deficiencies for those years, and we request that the enclosed checks be applied as additional payments with respect to those deficiencies. The February 12, 1999, letter further indicated the following allocations of the funds represented by the checks enclosed with the February 12, 1999, letter: As to petitioner W. August Hillenbrand, $187,957 should be applied to 1993, $26,531 should be applied to 1994, and $71,035 should be applied to 1995; as to petitioner Nancy K. Hillenbrand, $180,949 should be applied to 1993, $24,466 should be applied to 1994, and $70,718 should be applied to 1995. The foregoing specific allocations were further reflected on the lower left-hand side on the face of each of the six checks enclosed with the February 12, 1999, letter. Each check identified the specific individual and tax year. Check No. 4405, for $187,957, is marked “1993 W August Hillenbrand”. Check No. 4406, for $26,531, is marked “1994 W August Hillenbrand”.
