          than the Secretary) who signed the verification required under              
          section 6330(c)(1).  Nestor v. Commissioner, supra at 166-167.              
          Section 6330(c)(1) does not require the Appeals officer to give             
          the taxpayer a copy of the verification that the requirements of            
          any applicable law or administrative procedure have been met.               
          Id. at 166.                                                                 
               An Appeals officer may use computer transcripts of account             
          for a taxpayer to verify that requirements of applicable law and            
          administrative procedure have been met.  Keene v. Commissioner,             
          T.C. Memo. 2002-277 n.10; Hack v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo.                  
          2002-243; Hauck v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-184, affd. 64              
          Fed. Appx. 492 (6th Cir. 2003).  Skidmore reviewed transcripts of           
          account for petitioner for 1998, 2001, and 2002, and concluded              
          that the requirements of applicable law and administrative                  
          procedure had been met.                                                     
               5.   Whether Petitioner May Dispute Respondent’s Conclusion            
                    Regarding His Tax Liability for 1998 in This Proceeding           
               Petitioner contends that he may dispute respondent’s                   
          conclusion regarding his tax liability for 1998 in this                     
          proceeding.  We disagree.  Petitioner gave the notice of                    
          deficiency for 1998 to Kotmair; thus, it is clear that petitioner           
          had received it.  A taxpayer may dispute respondent’s conclusion            
          regarding his or her tax liability at the section 6330 hearing if           
          he or she did not receive a notice of deficiency or otherwise               
          have an opportunity to dispute the tax liability.  Sec.
