                                   an outstanding liability”, yet, you                
                                   do not name by what Statute we are                 
                                   made liable and you do not present                 
                                   for us the documents which support                 
                                   the assessments with the authority                 
                                   of the Service employees that were                 
                                   involved in making such                            
                                   assessments.  You state that                       
                                   notices of balance due were                        
                                   issued... Well, IR Code Section                    
                                   6331 cannot apply to us until we                   
                                   have neglected or refused to pay 10                
                                   days following the Notice and                      
                                   Demand for Payment.  Seven Statutes                
                                   and various IRS Publications refer                 
                                   to the requirement for the Notice                  
                                   and demand for payment.  We find no                
                                   authority referring to a “notice of                
                                   balance due”.  We did not receive a                
                                   statutory Notice and Demand for                    
                                   payment.                                           
                              c.) You state in your letter * * * “The                 
                                   underlying liability appears to be                 
                                   correct.  The assessments were                     
                                   based on your income and                           
                                   withholdings.”  The underlying                     
                                   liability is based upon what                       
                                   statute?  Where did you find a                     
                                   liability for the income tax in the                
                                   Internal Revenue Code? * * * we are                
                                   contesting not only the existence                  
                                   and the amount of the underlying                   
                                   liability for the taxes and                        
                                   penalties at issue, but, also the

                                   who changed our returns and who

                                   rise to our opportunity to a

                                   our right to a fair and impartial                  
                                   hearing conducted by an impartial                  
                                   appeals officer who has fulfilled
