Re: Edd Kahn on trial, again
There's no court today, so jury selection will continue on Monday, with opening arguments likely to occur on Monday afternoon.

All of which is equally relevant to Eddie's trial as were Eddie's theories to tax law.

Ocala man arrested for tax fraud related to Snipes
Updated: Thursday, 28 Jan 2010, 1:20 AM EST
Another arrest made in the tax fraud case with connections to actor Wesley Snipes. U.S. Marshals tracked down a man accused of helping bilk more than one billion dollars out of the federal government. The feds had to cross state lines to catch up with this guy.
Marshals caught Steven Hunter in Georgia last night. He's been on the run since November.
Hunter failed to appear for his sentencing in November 2009.
He was indicted by a federal grand jury in September 2008. His charges include conspiracy to defraud the us government, mail fraud and aiding and abetting. He was charged with four others who are all believed to be part of a group called the American Right's Litigators.
Cops say the group convinced more than four thousand people not to pay taxes to the federal government. Actor Wesley Snipes says he's one of those people. In February of 2008 Wesley Snipes was acquitted on federal tax fraud and and conspiracy charges. He was charged with three counts of failing to file tax forms.
Hunter is now in custody in Georgia. He could face additional charges for not showing up to his sentencing.

Re: Eddie Kahn on trial, again
The story above got the facts wrong. Hunter failed to show for his trial, not sentencing. The trial was supposed to start last November and got most of the way through jury selection when the judge got sick. The trial has been rescheduled for April.
