Shares") which Mr. Casey purchased on November 5, 1998 under the Option
Agreement dated July 15, 1998 described in Amendment No. 6 to Mr. Casey's
Statement. Incomnet does not currently have sufficient authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock to effect the conversion of the Preferred Shares into
common stock. Further, Mr. Casey is obligated, pursuant to the terms of the
Board Change Agreement dated August 28, 1998 to hold the Preferred Shares until
November 4, 1999 (the "Redemption Period") during which time the Company plans 
to redeem the Preferred Shares if it is financially able to do. If the Company 
is not able to redeem the Preferred Shares during the Redemption Period, 
Mr. Casey is obligated to convert the Preferred Shares into Common Stock and 
offer the Common Stock to all shareholders of Incomnet on a pro-rata basis at 
an offering price representing no actual profit to Mr. Casey.

        This Statement is the sixteenth Amendment to the Statement on Schedule
13D filed on April 7, 1998 (as previously amended, the "Statement") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission by Mr. John P. Casey in connection with his
beneficial ownership of shares (the "Shares") of common stock of Incomnet, Inc.
("Incomnet" or the "Issuer"). All capitalized terms used and not defined in this
Amendment No. 16 have the meanings given to them in the Statement.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

        As disclosed on Amendment Nos. 5, 6 and 7 of this Statement, Mr. Casey
purchased an aggregate of 1,907,404 shares of Incomnet common stock and the
option to purchase the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock using borrowed
funds from Trans Pacific Stores, Ltd., a Hawaiian corporation ("Trans Pacific").
These funds were initially borrowed under an oral arrangement with Trans
Pacific. On January 28, 1999 Mr. Casey executed a promissory note (the "Trans
Pacific Note") in favor of Trans Pacific in the amount of $3,837,224.00, which
Note was intended to replace the prior financing arrangements. The Trans Pacific
Note is secured by a pledge of certain personal assets of Mr. Casey and all
proceeds from any sale of his shares of Incomnet Common Stock. The Trans Pacific
Note has an interest rate of 18% compounded quarterly and has no minimum
periodic payments and no prepayment penalties. The Trans Pacific Note is due and
payable in full by not later than June 30, 1999, unless the parties mutually
agree upon an extension. The Trans Pacific Note gives Trans Pacific the ability
to elect, in lieu of the interest due under such facility, to have Mr. Casey pay
Trans Pacific in shares of Incomnet Common Stock or cash, an amount equal to 25%
of the appreciation in the per share Common Stock price of Incomnet at the time
of prepayment or, if not prepaid, at June 30, 1999 (the "Payoff Date") in excess
of $0.725 per share multiplied by 5.4 million (the "Stock Appreciation Right").
For purposes of determining the per share value of Incomnet stock in calculating
the Stock Appreciation Right, the value of the stock shall be equal to the
average closing price of the stock on the five trading days prior to the Payoff
Date. If Trans Pacific elects to receive the Stock Appreciation Right, all
interest payments by Mr. Casey prior to the Payoff Date shall be credited
against the number of Stock Appreciation Right shares or amount of Stock
Appreciation Right cash. John P. Hill, Jr., a director of the Company, is the
President of Trans Pacific.

        Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

        (d) Until the Trans Pacific Note has been paid in full, Trans Pacific
has the right to receive such proceeds from any sale of Mr. Casey's shares of
Incomnet common stock as are necessary to repay all amounts due under the Trans
Pacific Note.
