          Practice and Procedure, and all section references are to the               
          Internal Revenue Code, as amended.                                          
               This matter is before us under Rule 121 on the parties’                
          cross-motions for summary judgment.                                         
               Respondent issued a notice of determination concerning                 
          collection action(s) under section 6320 and/or 6330 sustaining a            
          levy on petitioner’s property to collect unpaid taxes for taxable           
          years 2000, 2001, and 2002.  The underlying issue for decision in           
          this matter is whether respondent’s Appeals Office abused its               
          discretion by rejecting offers-in-compromise made on petitioner’s           
          behalf, thus sustaining respondent’s proposed levy action against           
          petitioner’s Individual Retirement Account (IRA).                           
                                     Background                                       
               For purposes of addressing the parties’ cross-motions for              
          summary judgment, the record in this matter consists of the                 
          pleadings, the parties’ cross-motions for summary judgment, and             
          the relevant documents attached thereto.  The underlying facts in           
          this case are not in dispute.                                               
               In order to collect unpaid Federal income taxes and related            
          additions to tax and interest for 2000, 2001, and 2002 respondent           
          seeks to levy on petitioner’s IRA for the taxes owed as follows:            
          $1,636.51 for 2000; $27,368.92 for 2001; and $5,800.83 for 2002.
