Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit·Decided April 2, 1992·No. 91-1834·Published·Cited by 6 cases

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner-appellant, Frank A. Fazzio (“appellant”), appeals from the tax court’s April 16, 1991, order and decision, which held that appellant was deficient in his payment of income tax for the 1984 taxable year and ordered payment by appellant for additional taxes pursuant to I.R.C. §§ 6653(b)(l)-{2), 6661. Finding that appellant’s deficiency was a “substantial underpayment attributable to a tax-motivated transaction,” the tax court further ordered appellant to pay interest on the deficiency pursuant to I.R.C. § 6621(c).

Having carefully considered the record and the arguments presented in the briefs and orally, we find no error warranting reversal. We, therefore, AFFIRM the order of the Honorable L.W. Hamblen, Judge for the United States Tax Court, for the reasons set forth in his April 16, 1991, decision, made pursuant to the tax court’s December 3, 1990, and March 21, 1991, memorandum opinions.
