PER CURIAM:

     Ronald Thomas appeals from the tax court’s order dismissing

his petition for lack of jurisdiction for failing to file within

the ninety-day period required under 26 U.S.C. § 6213(a) (1994).

Our review of the record and the tax court’s opinion discloses no

reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

tax court.    See Thomas v. Commissioner, No. 98-3595 (U.S.T.C. Jan.

22, 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
