Description
Elbert L. Hatchett appeals his conviction on four misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income taxes for tax years 1982, 1983, 1984, and 1986, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7203. On October 20, 1988, Hatchett was charged in an eight-count indictment with one count of tax evasion, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7201; one count of obstruction of tax collection, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7212(a); one count of concealment of property subject to levy, in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 7206(4); and five counts of willful failure to pay income taxes. After a month-long jury trial in February and March 1989, Hatchett was acquitted on the three felony counts and one misdemeanor count (failure to pay tax for 1985). The jury returned a guilty verdict on the other four counts, for which the court sentenced Hatchett to three consecutive one-year sentences. Hatchett also received one suspended sentence and was placed on five years' probation. Hatchett was also fined $100,000 ($25,000 on each count) and ordered to pay "all back taxes" as a condition of probation.
