SALT LAKE CITY — A Kaysville certified public accountant faces federal charges for tax evasion and failing to pay personal income tax totaling more than $153,000.
A five-count indictment alleges David Brian Bybee, 55, took steps to evade payment of personal tax debt and payroll taxes for his employees through misrepresentations to IRS revenue officers. The payroll taxes total nearly $48,000.
In addition to being a CPA, Bybee managed several companies from his Kaysville home or at other business locations in Davis County, according to the indictment.
Bybee is scheduled to appear in federal court May 26. The maximum penalty for each of the five counts is five years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
