Tax lien filed against author Quentin Reynolds
A federal tax lien of 44 520 54 was filed against author Quentin Reynolds in New York Friday. Reynolds, who last month won a libel judgment against columnist Westworh Pegler, called the lien a surprise and said the money is in escrow ready for the government. The lien covers 1944 through 1947 taxes and interest totaling over 330 000, with Reynolds claiming funds from two movie scripts that netted him 270 000 in three months. He said he had sought adjudication of earnings and that the government offered a reward in a separate case, while police pursued a major criminal investigation in Florida connected to a child disappearance and other crimes.
