          petitioner’s accounts with respect to his taxable years 1984,               
          1985, 1986, and/or 1990.  Included within those payments were the           
          following payments that respondent collected by levy from peti-             
          tioner’s wages from his employer KG7 K-Surf Radio for the pay               
          periods indicated:3                                                         



               2(...continued)                                                        
          taxable years, we use the word “ultimately” to refer to the                 
          corrected accounts as reflected in respective Forms 4340 with               
          respect to petitioner’s taxable years 1984, 1985, and 1987 and              
          respondent’s statement of petitioner’s account with respect to              
          his taxable year 1986.                                                      
               3In addition to respondent’s levy notice which respondent              
          served on KG7 K-Surf Radio, respondent:  (1) Recorded a notice of           
          Federal tax lien (tax lien) in Orange County, California, in the            
          amount of $17,292.82 with respect to petitioner’s unpaid liabili-           
          ties of $7,292.32 and $10,000.50 for his taxable years 1984 and             
          1985, respectively; (2) sent petitioner a notice of levy, which             
          respondent served on Ocean Broadcasting Inc., in the amount of              
          $12,618.19 with respect to petitioner’s unpaid liabilities of               
          $7,379.82, $4,356.86, and $881.51 for his taxable years 1984,               
          1985, and 1986, respectively; (3) released respondent’s tax lien            
          with respect to petitioner’s taxable years 1984 and 1985; and               
          (4) recorded a notice of tax lien with respect to each of peti-             
          tioner’s taxable years 1987, 1988, and 1990.                                
               With respect to the notice of levy that respondent sent                
          petitioner and served on Ocean Broadcasting Inc., the parties               
          stipulated:  “Attached as Exhibit 11-P is a copy of respondent’s            
          notice of levy dated January 14, 1992, which was served on Ocean            
          Broadcasting, Inc. in an attempt to collect respondent’s personal           
          income tax liability for 1984, 1985 and 1986.”  That stipulation            
          is clearly contrary to the facts disclosed by the record to the             
          extent that it states that respondent’s notice of levy was served           
          in an attempt to collect respondent’s, rather than petitioner’s,            
          unpaid liability for each of certain taxable years, and we shall            
          disregard it.  See Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. v. Commissioner, 93 T.C.           
          181, 195 (1989).  The record establishes, and we have found, that           
          respondent’s notice of levy was served in an attempt to collect             
          petitioner’s unpaid liabilities for his taxable years 1984, 1985,           
          and 1986.
