Klee accuses IRS of gag tactics in tax dispute
Ukiah tax practitioner Oscar Klee fights three misdemeanor counts for failing to file tax returns as the U S attorney general seeks a motion in limine to limit his defense. Klee calls the move a gag on free speech and civil rights while noting prior protests and two fleece ins in San Francisco and Santa Rosa. He and lawyers entered not guilty pleas and set motions for discovery and a bill of particulars for April 20 ahead of an April 30 trial before Judge Alfred Wohlberg.
