Description
John L. Sullivan, employed as the executive chef of a gourmet restaurant, was tried before a jury on a four-count indictment charging wilful attempts to evade and defeat federal income taxes for the years 1960 through 1963. The evidence offered by the Government tended to show that during these years Sullivan received additional unreported income consisting of "kick-backs" by meat, poultry and produce wholesalers from whom defendant purchased foodstuffs for the restaurant. The defense was that these payments were gifts or loans, and therefore not reportable income.
