LITIGATION RELEASE No. 15256 / February 13, 1997

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION V. HARVEY P. TABB, ET AL.,
Civil Action No. C-95-03459-CW (N.D. Cal. Sept. 29, 1995)

     On February 5, 1997, the Honorable Claudia Wilken, United
States District Court Judge, entered a Final Judgment against
defendants Harvey P. Tabb ("Tabb"), Donald R. Golan ("Golan"),
American Ticketing Systems, Inc. ("ATS"), Business Investment
Group, Inc. and Socal Ameritix Limited Partnership
1(collectively,
"defendants").  

     The Final Judgment orders Tabb, Golan and ATS to pay
disgorgement in the amounts of $296,543, $281,498 and $200,471,
respectively, plus prejudgment interest, payment of which is
waived by the Court based upon Tabb and Golan's sworn
representations of their inability to pay contained in their
respective Statements of Financial Condition dated November 18,
1996.  Based upon Tabb and Golan's representations in their
Statements of Financial Condition, the Court did not order
defendants to pay civil penalties.

     This action involved the alleged fraudulent offer and sale
of a series of unregistered limited and general partnership
interests by the defendants.  On October 4, 1995, the Court
issued an Order of Permanent Injunction against the defendants. 
The Permanent Injunction permanently enjoined the defendants from
future violations of the antifraud and registration provisions of
the federal securities laws.
