                                         -9-                                          
               Petitioners have failed to raise any arguments which have              
          not been previously rejected by this Court.2  Thus,                         
          notwithstanding petitioners’ request to have a “meaningful                  
          hearing” under sections 6320 and 6330, we consider it neither               
          necessary or productive to remand this case to Appeals to hold a            
          hearing.  Lunsford v. Commissioner, 117 T.C. 183 (2001).  We                
          sustain respondent’s notice of a lien filing and respondent’s               
          determination as to the proposed levy as a permissible exercise             
          of discretion.                                                              
               We have considered all arguments and have found those                  
          arguments not discussed herein to be irrelevant and/or without              
          merit.  To reflect the foregoing,                                           
                                                  Decision will be entered            
                                             for respondent.                          









               2 We also note that the Form 4340 received by petitioners is           
          a valid verification that the requirements of any applicable law            
          or administrative procedure have been met and is sufficient for             
          the purposes of complying with the requirements of sec.                     
          6330(c)(1).  Roberts v. Commissioner, 118 T.C. 365 (2002).                  
          Petitioners have not demonstrated in this proceeding any                    
          irregularity in the assessment procedure that would raise a                 
          question about the validity of the assessment or the information            
          contained in Form 4340.  See Mann v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo.               
          2002-48.
