Allyn Snyder, 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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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:

     David A. Avery appeals from the tax court’s order determining

a deficiency and assessing an accuracy-related penalty for his 1994

federal income taxes.     We have reviewed the record and the tax

court’s opinion and order and find no reversible error.    Accord-

ingly, although we deny the Commissioner’s motion for sanctions

pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 38, we affirm on the reasoning of the

tax court.    See Avery v. Commissioner, No. 98-9970 (U.S.T.C. Dec.

27, 1999).    We dispense with 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
