116 T.C. No. 19 UNITED STATES TAX COURT JAMES R. KENNEDY, Petitioner v. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, Respondent Docket No. 9544-00L. Filed April 23, 2001. On Sept. 10, 1999, R mailed to P a notice required by sec. 6320(a), I.R.C., concerning P’s unpaid tax liabilities for the years 1984 through 1988. R concedes that such notice was not mailed to P at his last known address. On Oct. 25, 1999, R mailed to P a final notice of intent to levy concerning P’s unpaid tax liabilities for the years 1984 through 1988. Although the notice of intent to levy was mailed to P at his last known address, P failed to file a request for an administrative hearing with the Internal Revenue Service Office of Appeals (Appeals Office) within the 30-day period prescribed in sec. 6330, I.R.C. Despite P’s failure to file a timely request for an Appeals Office hearing, R granted P a so-called equivalent hearing. On Aug. 17, 2000, R issued a “decision letter” to P stating that R would proceed with collection by way of levy. On Sept. 11, 2000, P filed a petition for review with the Court.Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Next
