Tax Fraud Overview

Tax fraud refers to the deliberate and illegal act of not reporting or underreporting income, overstating deductions, or hiding assets to avoid paying taxes owed to the federal government.

This type of fraud can take many forms, including falsifying tax documents, creating false deductions, or failing to report income from illegal sources.

Examples of federal tax fraud include:

• Falsifying information on tax returns
• Hiding income
• Creating false deductions
• Failing to pay employment taxes
• Identity theft

If you have been convicted of tax fraud charges, you need a federal appeals lawyer to represent you during the appeals process. An experienced federal appellate lawyer can review your case to determine whether there were any legal errors or inconsistencies in the original trial that could be challenged on appeal.

Grounds for Appealing Tax Fraud Convictions and Sentences

You can appeal a conviction or sentence for tax fraud offenses on various grounds.

Some possible grounds for appeal include:

• Errors in the trial proceedings — If there were errors or irregularities in the trial proceedings, such as improper admission of evidence, biased jury selection, or incorrect jury instructions, this could be grounds for appeal.
• Ineffective assistance of counsel — If you believe the defense attorney did not provide adequate representation, such as failing to investigate or present important evidence, this could be grounds for appeal.
• Insufficient evidence — If there is not enough evidence to support a conviction, this could be grounds for appeal. You would need to show that the jury’s decision was not supported by the evidence presented at trial.
• Sentencing errors — If there were errors in the sentencing process, such as miscalculating the amount of tax owed, applying the wrong sentencing guidelines, or imposing an unreasonable sentence, this could be grounds for appeal.

The grounds for appeal can vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case and the jurisdiction in which the case was tried. Appeals can be complex and require the skill of an experienced federal appellate attorney.
