Brooklyn owner of sportswear distribution business pleads guilty to tax evasion
The Justice Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced today that Harry Neuhoff, a resident of Brooklyn, has pleaded guilty to tax evasion.
According to documents filed with the court, Neuhoff was president and owner of Eva Tees Inc., formerly of Queens and currently located in Piscataway, N.J. From approximately 2006 to 2008, Neuhoff manipulated Eva Tees accounts through an accounting software program to delete cash sales from the general ledger accounts maintained on the computer accounting system.
As a result, Neuhoff filed false corporate tax returns on behalf of Eva Tees with the IRS that underreported the gross receipts of the firm. Neuhoff’s conduct also correspondingly resulted in his filing of false personal income tax returns with the IRS for those years.
