          Plotkin v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2001-71; Estate of Gray v.              
          Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1995-421.                                          
               Mr. Molina stopped making monthly payments on the 1998 loan            
          in March 1999.  Additionally, the city no longer required monthly           
          installment payments on the 1998 loan, and had no provision for             
          Mr. Molina to continue making monthly installment payments on the           
          1998 loan, after Mr. Molina’s termination.  Thus, after March               
          1999, the 1998 loan was no longer required to be repaid by means            
          of level amortization.  See sec. 72(p)(2)(C).  Accordingly,                 
          pursuant to section 72(p), no distribution includable in Mr.                
          Molina’s gross income occurred in 2000.                                     
               It is unclear from the record, however, whether, after                 
          application of our holding that petitioners did not have to                 
          report the $19,620 deemed distribution in 2000, petitioners’ tax            
          liability for 2000 remains unpaid.  Accordingly, we will direct             
          the parties to submit computations showing the correct amount of            
          petitioners’ tax liability for 2000.                                        
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              


                                                  An appropriate order                
                                             will be issued.
