United States Sixth Circuit

Testimony and evidence provided a sufficient basis from which a jury could infer that defendant knew that his tax returns were not true and correct as to every material matter. District court's jury instructions did not impermissibly shift the burden of proof in a 26 U.S.C. section 7206(1) violation.
