[1] This is an appeal of a judgment of the Tax Court dated October 10, 2002, dismissing an appeal of a reassessment for 1996. The decision is reported as Herring v. Canada, 2002 D.T.C. 2153 (T.C.C.).

REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario, on November 26, 2003)
SHARLOW J.A.
[1] This is an appeal of a judgment of the Tax Court dated October 10, 2002, dismissing an appeal of a reassessment for 1996. The decision is reported as Herring v. Canada, 2002 D.T.C. 2153 (T.C.C.). The basis of the reassessment was that Mr. Herring was not entitled to a deduction he had claimed for a business loss.
[2] The Tax Court Judge concluded that a loss had been sustained, but by a certain corporation and not by Mr. Herring. There was some evidence upon which the Tax Court Judge could reach that conclusion. We are all of the view that the record discloses no palpable and overriding error in the findings of fact, and no error of law, that would warrant the intervention of this Court. For that reason, this appeal will be dismissed with costs.
