Statute Text — 26 U.S.C. §6231
The Secretary shall mail to the partnership and the partnership representative—
notice of any administrative proceeding initiated at the partnership level with respect to an adjustment of any partnership-related item for any partnership taxable year, or any partner’s distributive share thereof,
notice of any proposed partnership adjustment resulting from such proceeding, and
notice of any final partnership adjustment resulting from such proceeding.
Any notice of a final partnership adjustment shall be sufficient if mailed to the last known address of the partnership representative or the partnership (even if the partnership has terminated its existence). The first sentence shall apply to any proceeding with respect to an administrative adjustment request filed by a partnership under section 6227.
Any notice of a proposed partnership adjustment shall not be mailed later than the date determined under section 6235 (determined without regard to paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (a) thereof).
Except to the extent that the partnership elects to waive the application of this subparagraph, any notice of a final partnership adjustment shall not be mailed earlier than 270 days after the date on which the notice of the proposed partnership adjustment is mailed.
For the period of limitations on making adjustments, see section 6235.
If the Secretary mails a notice of a final partnership adjustment to any partnership for any partnership taxable year and the partnership files a petition under section 6234 with respect to such notice, in the absence of a showing of fraud, malfeasance, or misrepresentation of a material fact, the Secretary shall not mail another such notice to such partnership with respect to such taxable year.
The Secretary may, with the consent of the partnership, rescind any notice of a partnership adjustment mailed to such partnership. Any notice so rescinded shall not be treated as a notice of a partnership adjustment for purposes of this subchapter, and the taxpayer shall have no right to bring a proceeding under section 6234 with respect to such notice.

The issue for decision is whether respondent, in reliance on section 6231(g)(2),2 reasonably determined that TEFRA procedures did not apply to Dani, LLC, for the 2011 and 2012 tax years. Section 6231(g)(2) provides: "If, on the basis ofa partnership return for a taxable year, the Secretary reasonably determines that this subchapter [TEFRA] does not apply to such partnership for such year but such determination is erroneous, then the provisions ofthis subchapter shall not apply to such partnershi
The parties filed opening and answering briefs addressing their positions as to whether section 6231(g)(2) applies under the facts ofthis case. Respondent argues that section 6231(g)(2) does not apply because the IRS did not determine that Stone Canyon was not subject to TEFRA and that, ifthe IRS had made such a determination, the determination would not have been reasonable.
Pursuant to section 6231(a)(1)(B)(ii), petitioner elected to be covered under TEFRA.

Under section 6231(g)(1), when the Commissioner erroneously determines that TEFRA applies to a non-TEFRA partnership, the partnership will be subject to TEFRA so long as that determination was reasonable on the basis ofthe partnership's tax return. When the Commissioner makes a reasonable but erroneous determination on the basis ofa partnership return that TEFRA applies to a small partnership, a partnership that should be subject to the normal deficiency procedures will instead be subject to the
