United States Seventh Circuit

Imposition of a fine for income tax evasion is affirmed where: 1) fines are not subject to the rule that a district court must establish a payment schedule when imposing restitution; 2) when fines are ordered payable immediately, the Bureau of Prisons may establish a payment schedule; and 3) the imposition of monthly payments for unpaid fine amounts as a condition of supervised release did not change the fine from one due immediately to one due in installments.
