April 2, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 14 MEMORANDUM OPINION - The Court has liberally construed Mr. Belcik's motions and supplemental briefing and has found no support for Mr. Belcik's argument that the IRS is engaged in an abuse of process.

Consequently, the United States Motion to Dismiss or Alternatively, Motion for Summary Judgment is moot. (Doc. #4 ). The Court will enter a final order closing this matter.
