- 16 - motion for summary judgment is contrary to Rule 121(d) and justifies summary judgment for respondent on this issue. We likewise reject petitioner’s argument that the Appeals officer failed to obtain verification from the Secretary that the requirements of all applicable laws and administrative procedures were met as required by section 6330(c)(1). The record shows that the Appeals officer obtained and reviewed a transcript of petitioner’s account for 1998. Federal tax assessments are formally recorded on a record of assessment. Sec. 6203. “The summary record, through supporting records, shall provide identification of the taxpayer, the character of the liability assessed, the taxable period, if applicable, and the amount of the assessment.” Sec. 301.6203-1, Proced. & Admin. Regs. Section 6330(c)(1) does not require the Commissioner to rely on a particular document (e.g., the summary record itself rather than a transcript of account) to satisfy the verification requirement imposed therein.
