Landlord fraud trial continued in federal court

Cedar Rapids landlord Robert Miell had his mail and tax fraud trial moved to January 5 in Sioux City. He faces 19 counts of mail fraud, two counts of filing false tax returns, and one count of perjury. If convicted he could receive up to 20 years for each mail fraud count, five years for perjury and three years for the tax charges. Miell cited an unusually complex case and discovery as reasons for the delay, plus a conflict for one attorney with the September trial date. Miell owns about 1,000 Cedar Rapids rental properties valued around $80 million. The postponement follows a civil verdict in which American Family Mutual Insurance awarded Miell’s insurer $1.9 million in year.
