          qualified domestic relations order, and that there would have               
          been some type of a penalty, [he] most certainly would have                 
          requested [his] attorney to make sure that it was done in full              
          compliance.”  Assuming petitioner was given inadequate advice by            
          his counsel, this is not the proper forum for petitioner to seek            
          redress for that alleged wrong.  Estate of Quirk v. Commissioner,           
          T.C. Memo. 1995-234.                                                        
               On the record before the Court, we find that petitioner is             
          liable for the 10-percent additional tax on the $250,000 early              
          distribution from his IRA, pursuant to section 72(t).                       
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              


                                                  Decision will be entered            
                                             for respondent.
