APPEAL OF PAUL POLICHRONIADES.
Polichroniades v. Commissioner
Docket No. 1265.
United States Board of Tax Appeals
2 B.T.A. 1263 ; 1925 BTA LEXIS 2102 ;
November 9, 1925 , Decided Submitted August 24, 1925 .
*2102 Martin Bourke, Esq., for the taxpayer.
Ward Loveless, Esq., for the Commissioner.
*1263 Before JAMES, LITTLETON, SMITH, and TRUSSELL.
This is an appeal from the determination of a deficiency in income tax for the year 1920 in the amount of $109.15.
FINDINGS OF FACT.
The taxpayer is an individual residing in New York City, and during the year in question was conducting a delicatessen store in partnership with his brother, Anthony.
The taxpayer and his brother, in connection with the said partnership, did not keep books of account showing either receipts and disbursements on account of the business or accrued items of income and expense. The taxpayer filed an income-tax return containing *1264 what he believed to be the income derived by him from the said business, but no partnership return was filed in connection therewith.
The Commissioner after an examination of such books and records as were available determined the deficiency here in issue.
The taxpayer during the year in question was the head of a household consisting of himself, a dependent mother, and two dependent minor brothers, 10 and 12 years of age, respectively. The *2103 members of the said household, other than the taxpayer, were incapable of self-support and were supported by him.
DECISION.
The deficiency should be computed in accordance with the foregoing findings of fact. Final determination will be settled upon 10 days' notice, in accordance with Rule 50.
