                                        - 3 -                                         
          reported to the Court that as of December 20, 2006, unpaid taxes            
          remain in this case.  On December 27, 2006, we vacated our order            
          dismissing this case for lack of jurisdiction.                              
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.               
          A.  Petitioner and Intervenor                                               
               Petitioner resided in Scottsdale, Arizona, when she filed              
          her petition.  Petitioner and intervenor (collectively, the                 
          Murrays) were married in September 1988 and were divorced in June           
          1998.  They had two children.                                               
               Petitioner has a high school education.  She was employed              
          full time for several years before she married intervenor when              
          she was 30.  She worked full time until January 1990.  The                  
          Murrays had their first child in February 1990.  Petitioner                 
          occasionally worked part time from then until they separated in             
          1998.                                                                       
               Intervenor was a self-employed practicing lawyer most of the           
          time he was married to petitioner.                                          
               Intervenor was the family’s primary earner and handled the             
          family finances.  He wrote the majority of checks to pay the                
          family living expenses.  The Murrays did not live well, and money           
          was always tight.  In 1993, intervenor submitted an offer-in-               
          compromise with respect to years not identified in the record.
