- 13 - or disregard of rules and regulations. We have found that petitioner did not report an additional $25,766 of income for 1996. Nevertheless, respondent concedes that the omission of the Form 1099 income from American was justified because of petitioner’s reliance on a letter from the attorney who represented him during his settlement with American. Accordingly, no penalty will be imposed on this portion of the underpayment. We conclude that petitioner is liable for a penalty pursuant to section 6662 for 1996 in the recalculated amount of $1,052. In reaching all of our holdings herein, we have considered all arguments made by the parties, and to the extent not mentioned above, we find them to be irrelevant or without merit. To reflect the foregoing, Decision will be entered under Rule 155.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
