David Black, a lawyer from Port Huron, Michigan, has been charged with tax evasion, after failing to report over $750,000 in taxable income.
Black is the head of the law firm Black, Black and Black and only reported $319,866 to the Internal Revenue Service in 2004, when he allegedly needed to list $1,080,075 as his income for the year.
Court documents show Black's alleged misreporting allowed him to avoid $270,941, the Times Herald reports..
This is not the first time that Black has been targeted by the IRS for possible income tax evasion. His office and house were raided by the government in 2006, taking computers, as well as tax and finance records, because of a possibility of evading taxes at some point from 2001 to 2005, the news source reported.
Information regarding the amount of time he could face if found guilty, as well as impending court dates, were not immediately available.
