          Office hearing pursuant to section 6330(a)(2) and (3)(B) and (b).           
          Id.                                                                         
          II. Section 6702 Notice of Determination                                    
               The Court’s jurisdiction to review the Commissioner’s                  
          determinations respecting collection matters is limited to cases            
          where the underlying tax liability is of a type over which the              
          Court normally has jurisdiction.  See Moore v. Commissioner, 114            
          T.C. 171 (2000).  We lack jurisdiction under section                        
          6330(d)(1)(A) to review the Commissioner’s determinations                   
          regarding the section 6702 frivolous return penalty.  Johnson v.            
          Commissioner, 117 T.C. 204, 208 (2001); Van Es v. Commissioner,             
          115 T.C. 324, 329 (2000) (“we do not * * * have jurisdiction to             
          redetermine the frivolous return penalties assessed pursuant to             
          section 6702”).                                                             
               Accordingly, we shall dismiss the petition as to the notice            
          of Federal tax lien regarding the section 6702 penalty for 1999             
          and 2000 on the ground that we lack jurisdiction to review                  
          respondent’s determinations regarding the section 6702 penalty.             
          Johnson v. Commissioner, supra; Van Es v. Commissioner, supra.              
          Pursuant to section 6330(d), petitioner has 30 days after the               
          entry of our order to file his appeal with the appropriate U.S.             
          District Court regarding the notice of determination that                   
          pertains to the notice of Federal tax lien for the section 6702             
          penalty for 1999 and 2000.
