          shares of partnership items reported on the partnership return              
          for 1985.                                                                   
               On July 2, 1990, respondent issued an FPAA to petitioner and           
          SGE’s TMP relating to the partnership return filed for the 1986             
          tax year.  In the Explanation of Adjustments included with the              
          FPAA, respondent made adjustments to SGE’s partnership return               
          reducing all items reported during the 1986 tax year to zero.               
          The following items reported on SGE’s 1986 partnership return               
          were reduced to zero:  (1) Farm income totaling $123,434; (2)               
          farm deductions totaling $1,948,760; (3) guaranteed payments                
          totaling $31,234; (4) IRA payments totaling $52,000; (5) Keogh              
          payments totaling $8,000; and (6) self-employment loss totaling             
          $1,825,326.  Again, the explanation listed the various reasons              
          why SGE was not entitled to the items reported and why the                  
          partners were not entitled to their distributive shares of those            
          items.                                                                      
          E.  Litigation Relating to SGE for Tax Years 1985 and 1986                  
               On September 8, 1989, a petition was filed in the Tax Court            
          at docket No. 22069-89, contesting the determinations made by               
          respondent in the FPAA for SGE’s 1985 tax year.  On October 1,              
          1990, a petition was filed with this Court at docket No. 21954-             
          90, contesting the determinations made in the FPAA for SGE’s 1986           
          tax year.
