LOS ANGELES—The owner of an Encino tax preparation company was sentenced Friday to three months behind bars and ordered to pay a $40,000 fine for helping a client file a false tax return that underreported income.
Bijan Kohanzad, 63, of Calabasas pleaded guilty in February in downtown Los Angeles to one federal count of aiding and assisting the filing of a false tax return, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
