                                        - 6 -                                         
              Petitioner’s CDP hearing occurred on October 24, 2003.  At              
         the hearing petitioner asserted that he was adversely affected by            
         the loss of the CDP hearing request.  Petitioner paid the tax                
         liabilities due with respect to 1997 and 1998 on November 24,                
         2003.  On December 5, 2003, approximately 6 weeks after the                  
         Appeals Office hearing, the Federal tax lien for the 1996, 1997,             
         and 1998 tax years was released.                                             
              As indicated, a notice of determination was issued on                   
         December 30, 2003.  The Appeals officer determined that                      
         respondent’s collection action under section 6320 was proper,                
         that the taxes were properly assessed, and that the notices of               
         Federal tax liens were properly recorded.  The Appeals officer               
         further indicated that the tax liabilities for all years in issue            
         were paid in full, that the notice of Federal tax lien for 1995              
         had been released, and that the release of lien for 1996, 1997,              
         and 1998 was forwarded to the Maricopa County Recorder.3                     
              Petitioner asserts that he entered into an agreement with               
         respondent for the payment of his 1995 and 1996 tax liabilities,             
         which allowed him to make payments of principal only, permitting             
         a waiver of all interest and “penalties”.4  Petitioner asserts               

               3  As noted earlier, the 1996, 1997, and 1998 lien was                 
          actually released on Dec. 5, 2003, prior to the issuance of the             
          notice of determination.                                                    
               4  An addition to tax under sec. 6651(a)(2) for failure to             
          timely pay the tax shown as due on the 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998           
                                                             (continued...)
