          confirming a face-to-face hearing for June 27, 2005.  On June 27,           
          2005, Mr. Sample telephoned petitioner and postponed the                    
          conference because he needed to issue to petitioner a contact               
          letter setting forth the issues to be discussed at the conference           
          and requesting the financial information necessary to conduct the           
          hearing.  Mr. Sample informed petitioner that petitioner would be           
          denied a face-to-face hearing if petitioner did not raise any               
          substantive issues in response to these requests.  On June 27,              
          2005, Mr. Sample sent a letter to petitioner scheduling a                   
          telephone conference for July 13, 2005.

          petitioner in which no substantive issues were raised and no                
          financial information was provided.  On July 13, 2005, Mr. Sample           
          attempted to contact petitioner to conduct the scheduled                    
          telephone conference, but petitioner did not participate.  On               
          July 14, 2005, Mr. Sample sent petitioner a letter scheduling a             
          telephone conference for July 25, 2005.                                     
               On July 15, 2005, Mr. Sample received from petitioner a                
          package of documents consisting of frivolous arguments and a

          occasionally works in the Thousand Oaks office and was willing to           
          meet with petitioner at the Thousand Oaks office.
