Frederick D. Greco, Appellant Pro Se. Jonathan Samuel Cohen, John A. Dudeck, Jr., UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

The estate of Anne Greco and the co-administrator of her

estate appeal from the tax court’s decision upholding the Commis-

sioner’s determination of a deficiency in the estate’s tax liabil-

ity in the amount of $24,726.53. We have reviewed the record, the

tax court’s opinion, and this court’s decision in Patten v. United

States, 116 F.3d 1029 (4th Cir. 1997) (decided while this appeal

was pending), and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm

on the reasoning of the tax court. Estate of Greco v. Commissioner,

No. 20683-94 (U.S. Tax Ct. Dec. 17, 1996). We deny Appellee’s

motion for oral argument because the facts and legal contentions

are adequately presented in the materials before the court and

argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
