          February 21, 2006, petitioner submitted a Form 12153, Request for           
          a Collection Due Process Hearing, raising frivolous and meritless           
          arguments.                                                                  
               By letter dated May 18, 2006, respondent’s Appeals                     
          settlement officer advised petitioner that a telephonic hearing             
          was scheduled for June 8, 2006.  The letter advised petitioner              
          that he would be allowed a face-to-face hearing on any relevant,            
          nonfrivolous issue, if petitioner responded within 14 days                  
          describing such an issue.  The letter also advised that if                  
          petitioner desired to pursue collection alternatives, he should             
          provide specified materials, including petitioner’s unfiled                 
          income tax returns for 1997, 2004, and 2005.                                
               By facsimile transmission on June 8, 2006, petitioner                  
          declined the telephonic hearing, demanding a face-to-face hearing           
          but providing no information about relevant issues.                         
               By notice of determination dated June 15, 2006, respondent’s           
          Appeals Office sustained the proposed levy.  As part of this                
          determination, the Appeals settlement officer reviewed a TXMODA             
          computer transcript to verify that the assessments for                      
          petitioner’s 2003 taxes were properly accomplished and that                 
          notice and demand for payment had been issued to petitioner on              
          the date of assessment.
