After concessions,2 the issue for decision is whether petitioner
is liable for additions to tax for negligence pursuant to section
6653(a)(1)(A)3 and (B) for the taxable year 1986.
On September 11, 1998, respondent moved, pursuant to Rule
91(f), to compel petitioner to enter into a proposed stipulation
of facts. We ordered petitioner to show cause why the matters
covered by respondent’s motion should not be deemed admitted for
purposes of this case. Petitioner failed to respond to the order
to show cause. We, therefore, granted respondent’s motion and
deemed the matters contained in the proposed stipulation to be
facts for purposes of this case. Rule 91(f).
FINDINGS OF FACT

her petition. Petitioner and Paul A. Bilzerian (Mr. Bilzerian)
