- 4 - Determination Concerning Collection Actions to petitioner stating in pertinent part as follows: Your request for a hearing with Appeals was made under IRC �6330 to prevent appropriate collection action. You state in your request that you did not have income for 1988 that is subject to tax. Tax was assessed for the year 1988 under IRC �6020(b) because you failed to voluntarily file an income tax return. You were provided an opportunity to dispute the assessment but you defaulted on the statutory notice of deficiency of October 6, 1995. A hearing with Appeals to discuss alternative collection resolutions was held with you on June 12, 2000. IRC �6330(c)(2)(B) precludes you from raising the 1988 liability as an issue. You responded by stating that you had no income that is subject to tax for 1988 and requested a Determination Letter be issued so that you may pursue your case through the Tax Court. On August 10, 2000, petitioner submitted to the Court a document that the Court filed as an imperfect petition for review of respondent's determination to proceed with collection.2 The petition does not contain any specific allegations. In response to the petition, respondent filed a Motion To Dismiss For Failure To State A Claim Upon Which Relief Can Be Granted. Respondent asserts that, because petitioner received a notice of deficiency for the year in issue (and therefore was presented with an earlier opportunity to contest his tax liability in this Court), petitioner is precluded by statute from contesting his tax liability in this proceeding. By Order dated 2 At the time that the petition was filed, petitioner resided in Westminster, Colo.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next
