                                       - 24 -                                         
         have used to obtain the amount of outstanding interest on his                
         1991 tax liability.  In addition, respondent provided petitioner             
         with statements of the amount of interest outstanding at the time            
         the Forms 4340 were presented to him.  Petitioner, who is an                 
         experienced attorney, does not contend or allege that he in any              
         manner was prejudiced by respondent’s failure to provide the                 
         amount of interest on the notices.  Petitioner has not stated how            
         he may have been prejudiced by the omission of the amount of                 
         outstanding interest on the three notices.  The fact of the                  
         matter is that petitioner was well aware of the amount of                    
         interest and complained mightily about it.                                   
              In this record there was no prejudice on respondent’s                   
         omission of the amount of interest on 3 of the 10 notices sent to            
         petitioner.  Further, petitioner has not shown that he was                   
         prejudiced by such omissions.  Accordingly, we find it                       
         unnecessary to consider what type of remedial action, if any,                
         would be appropriate.                                                        
              VII.  Whether Respondent’s Filing of Notices of Federal Tax             
                    Lien was Improper Deprivation of Property or Property             
                    Rights                                                            
              Continuing with his shotgun approach to this proceeding,                
         petitioner contends that “The Fifth Amendment to the United                  
         States Constitution provides that no person shall be deprived of             
         life, liberty or property without due process of law, which is               
         not a term without meaning.”  Respondent’s use of statutorily
