               After concessions, the issues to be decided are:

          each of the years at issue;                                                 
               (2) whether the doctrines of res judicata, collateral                  
          estoppel, and/or double jeopardy bar the assessment of                      
          deficiencies and penalties for all years at issue in an amount              
          greater than $61,700; and                                                   
               (3) whether the period for assessing tax for the years at              
          issue has expired.                                                          
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.               
          The stipulation of facts and the exhibits attached thereto are              
          incorporated herein by this reference.                                      
               Petitioner resided in Austin, Minnesota, on the date the               
          petition in this case was filed.  During the years at issue,                
          petitioner farmed approximately 700 to 800 acres.  He grew                  
          soybeans, corn, and other crops.  These crops were then sold to             
          various grain elevator companies and canneries in the area.  In             
          addition, petitioner worked between 25 and 30 hours a week as a             
          theater manager/projectionist.
