               If we do not hear from you, your account will be                       
               reviewed by our department manager.  Your actions                      
               determine our handling of this account.                                
               In response, Mr. De Shon faxed to Discover a letter again              
          disputing the amount due.  Mr. De Shon did not receive any                  
          communication or correspondence from Discover in response to his            
          dispute, nor did he receive a replacement Discover card when his            
          card expired in May 1999.  Petitioners received their last                  
          statement pertaining to account 790 in May or June 1999.                    
          Petitioners did not remit any payments to this account after July           
          21, 1998.                                                                   
               Petitioners maintained another joint Discover credit card              
          account ending with the numbers 879 (account 879).  The address             
          listed for this account was the same address that was listed for            
          account 790, which is also petitioners’ current mailing address.            
          The credit card statement as of July 13, 2000, indicated a                  
          previous balance of $2,462, a purchase identified as “Bravo                 
          Reserve previous balance” of $1,155, and a new balance of                   
          $3,617.4                                                                    
               In early 2002, petitioners received from Discover two Forms            
          1099-C, Cancellation of Debt, for 2001:  one each for accounts              


               4  Respondent introduced at trial a photocopy of this                  
          statement and the declaration in lieu of affidavit to which Mr.             
          De Shon objected on the basis of lack of authenticity and                   
          completeness.  The Court admitted the evidence on the condition             
          that respondent furnish the original documents to the Court.                
          Subsequent to trial, respondent submitted to the Court the                  
          original documents.  Mr. De Shon’s objection is overruled.
