SANDRA BROWN to Speak at Upcoming 37th Annual National Institute on White Collar Crime

We are pleased to announce that Sandra Brown will be speaking at the upcoming ABA seminar, “In the Eye of the Beholder: What Moves a Tax Case from Civil to Criminal” on Wednesday, March 2, 2022, 10:00 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. (PST).

The IRS puts the current gross tax gap at more than $1 trillion dollars. The gap consists of underreporting, underpayment, and non-filing, and each of these areas includes potential criminal targets. So what moves tax noncompliance from the civil to the criminal realm? This panel will address the IRS focus on civil fraud enforcement and criminal referrals, including the creation, organization, and initiatives of the IRS Office of Fraud Enforcement, current IRS enforcement priorities, recent criminal tax prosecutions, what happens when a criminal tax investigation is discontinued or declined, and more.
