PER CURIAM.

1

Gerald Peters appeals from a Tax Court decision assessing a tax deficiency against him for the 1991 tax year. He also appeals from the Tax Court's decision denying his motion for administrative and litigation costs under 26 U.S.C. § 7430. After careful consideration of his claims on appeal, we affirm, essentially for the reasons given in the Tax Court's decision filed on December 2, 1994, and in its order dated February 6, 1995.
