MEMORANDUM ***
The cases now before us on consolidated appeal represent Donald Bailey’s third and fourth federal lawsuits aimed at undoing the effects of a penalty assessed against him by the IRS. Whether characterized as a claim for damages under the Federal Tort Claims Act, or as a motion to set aside the adverse judgment in Bailey’s first suit, both cases turn on the same allegations — namely, that the IRS used forged documents to obtain a successful ruling in Bailey’s first action, Bailey v. United States, 927 F.Supp. 1274 (D.Ariz.1996), aff'd, 117 F.3d 1424, 1997 WL 381945 (9th Cir.1997)…
