                               UNITED STATES TAX COURT                                


                 TERUYA BROTHERS, LTD. & SUBSIDIARIES, Petitioner v.                  
                    COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent                      


               Docket No. 17955-03.             Filed February 9, 2005.               


                    In 1995, in a series of planned transactions, P                   
               transferred real properties to a qualified                             
               intermediary, TGE, which then sold them to unrelated                   
               third parties.  TGE used the sale proceeds, as well as                 
               additional funds from P, to purchase like-kind                         
               replacement properties for P from a corporation related                
               to P.                                                                  
                    Held:  The transactions in question were                          
               structured to avoid the purposes of sec. 1031(f),                      
               I.R.C., governing like-kind exchanges between related                  
               persons.  Under sec. 1031(f)(4), I.R.C., P is not                      
               entitled to defer gains realized on the exchanges.
