-4- of (1) respondent’s intention to levy under section 6331 and (2) petitioners’ right under section 6330 to a hearing with respondent’s Office of Appeals (Appeals). Enclosed with the final notice was a copy of Form 12153, Request for a Collection Due Process Hearing. On August 5, 2000, petitioners sent to respondent the Form 12153 requesting the referenced hearing. Petitioners attached to the Form a request that the hearing officer have at the hearing “the specific Code Section making me [petitioners] ‘liable’ for the income tax at issue, along with Form 23C” and “The delegation of authority from the Secretary authorizing such persons [IRS employees] to impose a ‘frivolous’ penalty.” On January 10, 2001, respondent sent to petitioners a letter stating that petitioners were precluded by section 6330(c)(2)(B) from raising liability as an issue and that all other issues raised by petitioners were without merit. Respondent enclosed with that letter a transcript of petitioners’ account. On January 30, 2001, Appeals Officer Wiley Davis held with petitioners a hearing under section 6330. On May 8, 2001, respondent issued to petitioners duplicate Notices of Determination Concerning Collection Action(s) Under Section 6320 and/or 6330 for 1997. These notices reflected the determination of Appeals to sustain the proposed levy.Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Next
