The US Justice Department announced on Tuesday that a federal court in Orlando has permanently barred Florida-based Pierre Gauthier and his father, Jean Jay Gauthier from promoting an alleged tax-fraud scheme.
According to the complaint filed in the case, the Gauthiers helped customers set up offshore trusts and corporations to conceal their income and assets from the IRS, while using offshore debit or credit cards to repatriate the funds.
The civil injunction order, signed by Judge G. Kendall Sharp of the US District Court for the Middle District of Florida, requires the Gauthiers to stop selling the program.
The injunction, to which the two men consented, also requires them to notify their customers of the injunction and post a copy of the it on their Web sites.
