                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some facts were stipulated.  We incorporate by this                    
          reference the parties’ stipulation of facts and the accompanying            
          exhibits.  Petitioner resided in Orofino, Idaho, when the                   
          petition in this case was filed.                                            
               Petitioner failed to file income tax returns for 1992                  
          through 1995.  Respondent prepared substitute returns for each              
          year at issue.  On March 28, 1997, a statutory notice of                    
          deficiency was issued to petitioner for 1992, and statutory                 
          notices of deficiency for 1993, 1994, and 1995 were issued to               
          petitioner on October 24, 1997.  Respondent assessed $122,183.42            
          of income tax, penalties, and interest against petitioner for the           
          years at issue.                                                             
               On January 11, 2000, respondent issued a Final Notice of               
          Intent to Levy and Notice of Your Right to a Hearing to                     
          petitioner.  Petitioner timely requested a hearing.  In his                 
          request for a hearing, petitioner raised a single argument:                 
                    I do not agree with the collection action of                      
                    levy and notice of intent to levy [notice                         
                    date].  The basis of my complaint is what I                       
                    believe to be the lack of a valid summary                         
                    record of assessment pursuant to 26 CFR �                         
                    301.6203-1.  Without a valid assessment there                     
                    is no liability. Without a liability there                        
                    can be no levy, no notice of intent to levy,                      
                    nor any other collection actions.
