Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: In these consolidated appeals, Cecilia M. Hylton appeals the tax court’s order sustaining the Commissioner’s assessment of deficiencies and penalties, 26 U.S.C. § 6662(a) (2012), with respect to her federal income tax liability for the years 2004 through 2011. We have reviewed the record included on appeal, as well as the parties’ briefs, and we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the tax court. Hylton v. Comm’r, Tax Ct. Nos. 8887-13, 4955-14 (U.S. Tax Ct., Dec. 22, 2016, and Mar. 20, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 3
