COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE,

Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States Tax Court. (Tax Court No. 07-3464)

Submitted: December 16, 2008 Decided: December 19, 2008

Before WILKINSON, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Stephen S. Kyereme, Petitioner Pro Se. Nathan J. Hochman, Assistant Attorney General, Richard Farber, Gretchen M. Wolfinger, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Tax Division, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Stephen S. Kyereme appeals the tax court’s order

upholding the Commissioner’s assessment of a deficiency and

penalty with respect to Kyereme’s 2004 federal income tax

liability. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the tax

court. Kyereme v. Comm’r of Internal Revenue, (U.S. Tax Ct. No.

07-3464, U.S. Tax Court April 24, 2008). 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
