Michigan Man Gets 22 Mos. for Failing to Pay Taxes
Richard Blanchard, 52, of Warren, Mich., was sentenced to 22 months in prison and ordered to pay $195,000 in restitution to the IRS.
In August 2007, a federal jury convicted Blanchard on 18 counts of failure to account for and pay over employee withholding taxes.
From 1997 to 2003, Blanchard operated R. Blanchard Construction Company, which provided excavation and snow removal services. He withheld $195,000 in taxes but failed to pay the money to the IRS.
If you owe lots of money to the IRS, there are ways we can help before getting a prison sentence! One way is through the Offer in Compromise program which has worked for many of my clients!
