Girls Gone Wild owner Joe Francis, frequently on the wrong side of the law, wants access to two of his bank accounts containing millions that the IRS has frozen.
The IRS has seized the business owner’s assets because of unpaid taxes from 2001, 2002 and 2003 to the tune of $34 million. Joe, on the other hand, claims the government has $100 million of his money tied up and is adamant that he owes the IRS nothing.
Joe’s lawyers have filed papers in federal court requesting that the ban be lifted. Francis says that the hold has putting him on the brink of financial ruin and bankruptcy.
