The case is REOPENED, and this court's order 121 , adopting the magistrate judge's amend ed findings and recommendations 117 , is hereby MODIFIED to reflect ADOPTION IN PART based on the conclusion above with respect to the 1996 to 1998 tax years; to the extent the prior order of adoption does not conflict with anything herein, the remainder of the order stands.

September 26, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 118 ORDER signed by Magistrate Judge Kendall J. Newman on 9/25/17.
