In the taxpayer’s appeal from the tax court’s approval of the IRS Commissioner’s disallowance of a “qualified family-owned business interest” estate tax deduction to the taxpayer estate, the tax court’s order is affirmed where the “qualified family-owned business interest” deduction of 26 U.S.C. section 2057 is available for an estate’s qualifying equity or ownership interests but not for debt interests such as loans receivable.
