          F. Administrative Collection Matters                                        
               On January 29, 1999, respondent mailed a final notice of               
          intent to levy to petitioner.  See sec. 6331.  The notice states            
          that petitioner owes taxes, interest, and penalties for the years           
          and in the amounts as follows:                                              
                           Year         Amount                                        
                           1980     $  793,308.52                                     
                           1981      1,632,232.54                                     
                           1982        278,290.41                                     
                           1983      1,278,878.58                                     
                           1984        175,098.63                                     
                           1985        404,236.97                                     
                           1986        196,256.57                                     
          The notice also states that respondent is preparing to collect              
          these amounts and that petitioner would be given 30 days to                 
          request an Appeals Office hearing.                                          
               Petitioner timely requested a hearing with respondent's                
          Appeals Office.  In particular, petitioner argued that “the time            
          for making an assessment for all the periods listed on your                 
          'NOTICE OF INTENT TO LEVY' was negated on May 8, 1987".                     
               On September 29, 1999, the Appeals Office issued a Notice of           
          Determination Concerning Collection Actions to petitioner stating           
          that respondent would proceed with collection.  The determination           
          letter makes reference to petitioner's challenge to the validity            
          of the assessments and states that, because petitioner had an               
          earlier opportunity to dispute the underlying tax liabilities,              
          that issue would not be addressed by the Appeals Office.
