          procedure” on a point of law regarding the nature of the income             
          tax.  On September 27, 2001, the Court denied this motion.                  
               On September 17, 2001, petitioner filed a motion to quash              
          subpoena duces tecum.  The subpoena required petitioner to appear           
          30 minutes before the trial and to bring certain documents with             
          him.  On October 5, 2001, the Court denied this motion.                     
               On October 23, 2001, petitioner filed a motion for                     
          reconsideration of the Court’s order of October 5, 2001.  On                
          October 24, 2001, the Court denied this motion.                             
               On December 3, 2001, over a month after the trial of this              
          case, petitioner filed a motion to reconsider the denial of                 
          motion to quash subpoena duces tecum.  On December 11, 2001, the            
          Court denied this motion.                                                   
               At trial, the Court warned petitioner that his arguments               
          were frivolous and of the provisions of section 6673.  Petitioner           
          filed several frivolous documents with the Court.  Petitioner’s             
          position, based on stale and meritless contentions, is manifestly           
          frivolous and groundless, and he has wasted the time and                    
          resources of this Court.  Accordingly, we shall impose a penalty            
          of $12,500 pursuant to section 6673.                                        
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              
                                                  Decision will be                    
                                             entered for respondent.
