          Roberts v. Commissioner, 118 T.C. 365, 371 (2002).4  Respondent,            
          for a number of years, has been making a transition in his                  
          assessment procedure from the use of a manually prepared Form 23C           
          to the use of the RACS report.  Id.                                         
               Petitioner has not alleged any irregularity in the                     
          assessment procedure that would raise a question about the                  
          validity of the assessments or the information contained in the             
          transcripts of account.  Davis v. Commissioner, 115 T.C. 35, 41             
          (2000); Mann v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-48.  Accordingly,             
          we hold that the Appeals officer satisfied the verification                 
          requirement of section 6330(c)(1).  Cf. Nicklaus v. Commissioner,           
          117 T.C. 117, 120-121 (2001).                                               
               Petitioner has failed to raise a spousal defense, make a               
          valid challenge to the appropriateness of respondent’s intended             
          collection action, or offer alternative means of collection.                
          These issues are now deemed conceded.  Rule 331(b)(4).                      
               On brief, petitioner also argues that he did not receive a             
          section 6330 hearing because he was not allowed to have a court             
          reporter, to call witnesses, or to cross-examine witnesses at the           
          section 6330 hearing.  Generally, we do not consider issues that            





               4  We note that the taxpayer in Roberts v. Commissioner, 118           
          T.C. 365 (2002), was Thomas W. Roberts--petitioner’s                        
          representative prior to trial.
