Ivan B. Reash v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The Tax Court of the United States decided that there are deficiencies in the income tax and fifty-percent penalties properly assessed under section 293 (b) of the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C.A. § 293(b), against Ivan B. Reash for the years 1944, 1945, 1946, and 1947; and that there are deficiencies in the income tax, and penalties, for the year 1948, against Ivan B. Reash and his wife Grace M. Reash.

Upon the basis of the findings of fact of the tax court, which are supported by substantial evidence and are not clearly erroneous, we think the decision of the tax court should be affirmed. The petitioner, Ivan B. Reash, a farmer, was engaged in selling farm machinery as a retailer. He made no return of his income from such activity and obviously *955 was guilty of fraudulent tax evasion m neglecting to do so. The deficiencies are properly calculated and the penalties appropriately assessed.

Wherefore, the decision of the tax court is affirmed; and it is so ordered.
