OPINION

RADER, Judge:

In this tax refund suit, plaintiffs seek repayment of a disallowed deduction for rent on business property. Defendant moved to dismiss in part under the doctrine of variance. Defendant contends that plaintiffs did not give the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) adequate notice of their grounds for refund as required by 26 U.S.C. § 7422(a) (1988). Plaintiffs claim to have alerted the IRS of the grounds for the refund. In light of the adequate definition of law and facts in this case, oral argument is not necessary. This court denies defendant’s motion.
