The opinion

CHIECHI, J., dissenting: I join in Judge Parker’s dissent to the extent it addresses the QTIP issue. However, in light of the majority’s interpretation of section 2056(b)(7), I do not believe it necessary or appropriate to decide the venue issue that Judge Parker addresses in her dissent. Accordingly, I do not join Judge Parker’s dissent to the extent it considers that issue.
