(1) As used in this part 1, unless the context
otherwise requires, "frivolous submission" means a request for a hearing related to the tax set
forth in part 1 of article 22 of this title made pursuant to section 39-21-103 or 39-21-104 that is
based on a position that was previously rejected in a published opinion by a Colorado or federal
court.
(2) If the executive director determines that a request for a hearing made pursuant to
section 39-21-103 or 39-21-104 is a frivolous submission, the executive director may reject the
request. If the executive director does not reject the request, the provisions of section 39-21-103
or 39-21-104 shall apply.

after receiving the taxpayer's request for a hearing and shall send the taxpayer a notice of final
determination accompanied by a notice and demand for payment by first-class mail as set forth
in section 39-21-105.5.
(4) A taxpayer may appeal the final determination of the executive director in
accordance with the provisions of section 39-21-105.
