                               UNITED STATES TAX COURT                                


                      JOHN C. AND TATE M. TODD, Petitioners v.                        
                    COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent                      


               Docket No. 17046-99.             Filed April 19, 2002.                 


                    R disallowed deductions claimed on account of a                   
               contribution of corporate shares to a private                          
               foundation (other than a private foundation described                  
               in sec. 170(b)(1)(E), I.R.C.) on the alternative                       
               grounds that the shares were not qualified appreciated                 
               stock, within the meaning of sec. 170(e)(5)(B)(i),                     
               I.R.C., and that the shares were not publicly traded                   
               securities, within the meaning of sec. 1.170A-                         
               13(c)(7)(xi), Income Tax Regs., so that the                            
               substantiation requirements of sec. 1.170A-13(c)(1)(i),                
               Income Tax Regs., applied but were not satisfied.                      
                    1.  Held:  Deductions disallowed; the shares were                 
               not qualified appreciated property.                                    
                    2.  Held, further, deductions disallowed on                       
               alternative grounds; the shares were not publicly                      
               traded securities, so that the substantiation                          
               requirements were applicable but not satisfied.
