John D. And Karla Kay Glasgow v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue
John D. and Karla Kay GLASGOW, Petitioners-Appellees, v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent-Appellant
Opinion
PER CURIAM.
This appeal is taken by the Commissioner from a decision of the Tax Court, 31 T.C.M. 310 , holding that petitioners-appellees were entitled to a 1967 income tax deduction for educational expenses as ordinary and necessary business expenses under section 162(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 and the 1958 regulation, Treas.Reg. § 1.162-5, T.D. 6291, 1958-1 Cum.Bull. 63; 26 C.F.R. § 1.162-5 , Rev. 1958.
The expenses incurred were for undergraduate educational courses pursued by petitioner John D. Glasgow while serving as a Baptist minister. On the record we feel the issue was essentially a question of fact. We are satisfied that the findings and conclusions of the Tax Court as the trier of fact, as stated in its opinion, are not clearly erroneous and should therefore not be disturbed. Commissioner of Internal Revenue v. Duberstein, 363 U.S. 278 , 80 S.Ct. 1190 , 4 L. Ed.2d 1218 .
Affirmed.
