Findings of Fact
1. In December, 1942, the Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate sold its oil and gas properties to the Atlantic Refining Company for $25,000. Such properties constituted said syndicate's sole assets located in the United States. The proceeds from said sale were received by P. D. Bowlen, the petitioner herein.
2. The money paid for said oil and gas properties was received direct from the purchaser by P. D. Bowlen or was transferred by Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate to him.
3. The money received by P. D. Bowlen from the sale of the oil and gas properties of Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate was in excess of the taxes and penalties assessed by the respondent against petitioner as transferee of the assets of Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate for the taxable years involved.
4. The transfer or distribution of the assets of Guelph*231 Texas Oil Syndicate to petitioner rendered it insolvent and left it without assets of any kind from which the tax liability and penalties asserted by the respondent for the taxable years involved could be collected or paid.
5. The distribution or transfer of such assets, or cash, by the Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate to the petitioner was made to the petitioner without consideration.
6. Since the date of the transfer of such assets, or cash, by Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate, the syndicate has had no income and has possessed no assets of any kind from which the tax liability and penalties involved could be collected.
7. The deficiencies in tax and penalties, plus interest, of the Guelph Texas Oil Syndicate, which the respondent has assessed against petitioner as transferee, have never been paid or collected and still remain outstanding.
On the strength of the findings so made,
Decision will be entered for the respondent.
