Forsling resigns pressure over tax delinquency dispute

Town District Judge L B Forsling faced calls to resign after admitting he turned over his finances to his wife who he says overlooked five years of income taxes on his $10,000 yearly income. He owed about 450 dollars in back taxes plus penalties around 800 dollars total and promised immediate payment. His wife, an attorney, pleaded guilty to two counts of tax evasion and was fined 200 dollars and costs on each count. Forsling, a former state legislator who helped establish the state tax commission, described the embarrassment of continuing in office but remained unable to decide.
