          and to delay their inevitable reckoning with respondent.                    
          Accordingly, we award a penalty to the United States under                  
          section 6673 in the amount of $5,000.  See Roberts v.                       
          Commissioner, 118 T.C. 365, 373 (2002) (Court imposed a $10,000             
          penalty under section 6673(a) on taxpayer who instituted or                 
          maintained action under section 6330 primarily for delay); Davis            
          v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2001-87 (Court imposed a $4,000                 
          penalty under section 6673(a) for frivolous and groundless                  
          arguments in lien and levy case).                                           
               Accordingly,                                                           
                                                  An appropriate order and            
                                             decision will be entered.
