PER CURIAM:

     Melvin J. Laney appeals the tax court’s decision determining

deficiencies and additions to tax with respect to his 1986, 1987,

and 1988 federal income tax liabilities.   Our review of the record

and the tax court’s opinion discloses no reversible error. Accord-

ingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the tax court.   See Laney v.

Commissioner, No. 90-24510 (U.S. Tax Ct. Feb. 3, 1998).    We dis-

pense 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
