          Hotel Back Court, American Supply, and MFS Lifetime.  As discussed          
          above, the record does not establish, inter alia, (1) the taxable           
          year or years (i.e., 1989, 1991, 1992, and/or 1993) to which each           
          of the determinations about which we are aware pertains and                 
          (2) the portion, if any, of the understatement for each of those            
          years that is attributable to each such determination.  On the              
          record before us, we are unable to find whether or not each of              
          respondent’s determinations about which we are aware relates to an          
          erroneous item under section 6015(b)(1)(B) that gave rise to a              
          portion or all of an understatement for one or more of the taxable          
          years 1989, 1991, 1992, and 1993.                                           
               Assuming arguendo that each of respondent’s determinations             
          about which we are aware had related to such an erroneous item, we          
          turn first to petitioner’s contention that the only such erroneous          
          items that involved her were with respect to petitioner’s law               
          practice bank account.  We have found that, in addition to the              
          determinations relating to petitioner’s law practice bank account,          
          the determinations relating to the joint bank accounts of peti-             
          tioner and Mr. Monsour and petitioner’s separate bank account               
          affected petitioner directly.36  On the record before us, we find           
          that petitioner has failed to establish that the determinations             
          with respect to petitioner’s law practice bank account, the joint           
          bank accounts of petitioner and Mr. Monsour, and petitioner’s
