          other court, and this opinion shall not be cited as precedent for           
          any other case.                                                             
               In a notice of deficiency issued to petitioner on September            
          10, 2004, respondent determined deficiencies as follows:                    
                         Year                      Amount                             
                         1992                     $14,227                             
                         1993                     13,146                              
                         1994                     9,856                               
               Petitioner does not challenge the amount of the deficiency             
          for any of the years in issue.  Instead, petitioner claims relief           
          from the deficiency for each year under section 6015.                       
                                     Background                                       
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.  At           
          the time the petition was filed, petitioner resided in Delaware.            
               The circumstances surrounding the determinations of the                
          above-referenced deficiencies are summarized in the following               
          excerpt taken from United States v. Gricco, 277 F.3d 339, 346-348           
          (3d Cir. 2002):                                                             
                    From 1990 to 1994, Anthony Gricco was the regional                
               manager for private companies that contracted with the                 
               Philadelphia Parking Authority to operate the parking                  
               facilities at the Philadelphia International Airport.                  
               Gricco was responsible for the general operation of the                
               facilities, including the hiring of employees and the                  
               collection of parking fees.  Michael McCardell,                        
               Gricco’s brother-in-law, was Gricco’s chief assistant.                 
               McCardell oversaw the day-to-day activities of the                     
               tollbooths and picked up money from the cashiers at the                
               end of their shifts.                                                   
                    The parking facilities at the airport used                        
               automated ticket machines as well as cashiers.  Upon
