For 1985 and 1986, respondent also determined that petitioner was liable for additions to tax for fraud and for substantially understating his Federal income tax liability. Certain other adjustments made by respondent against petitioners in each notice of deficiency are no longer in dispute. At trial, respondent sought to significantly increase the illegal drug income to be charged to petitioner for each year. As indicated, the tax deficiencies reflected in respondent’s notice of deficiency to Martha Mchan were based solely on Martha’s alleged joint liability under section 6013 for the tax deficiencies determined against petitioner, and no fraud or other additions to tax were determined against Martha. 2 Respondent’s calculations of petitioner’s income from the sale of marijuana were also used by the District Court in the second criminal forfeiture action against petitioner.Page: Previous 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Next
