Reasons for disallowance:
You have requested a deduction for an ordiar loss equal to your remainng basis in an AMCOR parership. This treatment is based on abandonment or termination of that partership interest. Internal Revenue Code section 165 governs these tyes of losses and states they are limited to losses incurred in a trade or business,
incured in a trsaction entered into for profit or losses arising from fire...or other casualty or theft. The deterination of profit motive is a partership item determined at the parership leveL. The various AMCOR parerships were shams and had no economic substance. Thus, no loss is allowed under IRe section 165. A determination was made that allows for the capital treatment ofthese losses.
