1099-B REDEMPTION ORDINARY GAIN

[lferonti]

My client has a 1099-B with a redemption of a stock where it is showing an Ordinary Gain.  Where and how do I report this so that it is not treated as a capital gain?  I've gone over all the worksheets and forms but I can't seem to figure out how to get this treated as an ordinary gain.  Thanks.

Is this a short term capital gain?  Then it is taxed as ordinary income.

Is that the line labeled 897 gain?

It is a long term stock but on the 1099-B it is labeled at Ordinary Gain.  That's why I'm confused.  The date purchased is way beyond one year ago. I am not sure how to deal with this.  There is also Interest Shortfall on contingent payment debt related to this stock.
