Government Files Charges Against Anson & Garrett Alleging Illegal Hotel Partnership Tax SchemeAccording to court papers, federal prosecutors have filed charges against Ronald I. Anson and Jack E. Garrett accusing the Four Star executives of participating in an illegal hotel partnership tax scheme.
Court records filed in May show prosecutors charging Anson with “conspiracy to defraud the United States” in an alleged scheme that resulted in a tax loss to the U.S. Treasury of approximately $9 million. The U.S. Attorney’s Office accused Garrett of “aiding and assisting preparation of false tax return.” In its filing, federal prosecutors asserted that the total amount of government tax loss from Garrett’s “preparation and signing of these false returns is $357,906.”
Both Anson and Garrett initially pleaded not guilty to the government allegations, but recent court filings indicate the two Four Star executives may be in the process of changing those pleas to guilty.
In addition to serving as Four Star executives, Anson and Garrett were both certified public accountants.
Prosecutors filed the charges in U.S. District Court for the Central District California. To read the charges against Anson, please click here. To read the charges against Garrett, please click here.
