          so might suggest that these arguments have some colorable merit.”           
          Crain v. Commissioner, 737 F.2d 1417, 1417 (5th Cir. 1984).                 
               We conclude petitioner’s position was frivolous and                    
          groundless and that petitioner instituted and maintained these              
          proceedings primarily for delay.  Accordingly, pursuant to                  
          section 6673(a) we hold petitioner is liable for a $10,000                  
          penalty.                                                                    
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              

                                                  An appropriate order and            
                                             decision will be entered.
