                       MEMORANDUM FINDINGS OF FACT AND OPINION

          determination made by respondent’s Appeals Office that respondent           
          may proceed to collect by levy unpaid taxes with respect to

          the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and all Rule                 
          references are to the Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure.
