WHITE PLAINS, NY (May 10, 2022) — Magistrate Judge Judith C. McCarthy held a preliminary conference Tuesday at the United States Courthouse in White Plains, NY in a civil lawsuit filed by the United States of America against Philip Colasuonno for his alleged Failure to Collect and Pay Over Tax, or Attempt to Evade or Defeat Tax.

Judge McCarthy heard from Anthony Jan-Huan Sun representing the United States of America and Erin Kathleen Flynn representing Philip Colasuonno on their understanding of what the case is all about.

Jan-Huan Sun said the case began in 2007 when an armored car company failed to pay benefit taxes for its employees. Philip Colasuonno was found to be an individually responsible person in the case.

Colasuonno served 4 months in Federal prison for probation violations then pleaded guilty, was sentenced to time served, was given supervised release and ordered to make restitution of $781,467.
