Estate of Sylvia Gore, Donor, Deceased, Pamela Powell, Personal Representative - Page 74




                                       - 74 -                                         
          purchaser or seller is liable for ad valorem taxes when real                
          property is sold and do not address the issue of when the State             
          ad valorem tax liability actually becomes due and payable.  Allen           
          v. Henshaw, 168 P.2d 625 (Okla. 1946); Bd. of Commrs. v. Cent.              
          Baptist Church, 276 P. 726 (Okla. 1929).  Accordingly, petitioner           
          has not established that the estate is entitled to any deduction            
          for decedent’s 1997 ad valorem tax.  We sustain respondent’s                
          determination disallowing the $1,543 ad valorem tax deduction               
          claimed by the estate.                                                      
          IX.  Conclusion                                                             
               We have considered the remaining arguments of both parties             
          for results contrary to those expressed herein and, to the extent           
          not discussed above, find those arguments to be irrelevant, moot,           
          or without merit.                                                           
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              

                                                  Decisions will be entered           
                                             under Rule 155.
