The jet was seized Wednesday by federal agents. He was also charged with 19 tax counts, including lying to an Internal Revenue Service officer, not paying personal income taxes since 2010, failing to pay taxes for his busi- nesses, including two law firms, and pocketing payroll taxes from the Tully’s Coffee chain that he owned, the indictment said. Between September 2015 and January 2018, Global Baristas US, the company that operated Tully’s, failed to pay the IRS $3.2 million in payroll taxes, including nearly $2.4 million withheld from employees, the indictment said. When the IRS later put tax levies on coffee company bank accounts to collect more than $5 million, Avenatti had Tully’s employees deposit cash receipts in a little-known account for his auto racing team, authorities said. Avenatti was also charged with submitting phony tax returns to get more than $4 million in loans from The Peoples Bank in Biloxi, Mississippi, in 2014. The tax returns he pre- sented to the bank were never filed to the IRS, prosecutors said.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, April 13, 2019: This year, you could become skilled at be- ing spontaneous and learn to handle the unexpected. If single, you might be sur- prised by what comes down your path. Be smart; take your time getting to know someone. If you’re attached, you and your partner make quite a team. When one DUSTIN By Steve Kelley and Jeff Parker party is down, the other is up. LEO loves being around you. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 20-April 19) HHHH Relish the weekend. Your energy returns, and you seem to gravitate toward a loved one or child. Unpredictability ear- marks a good part of your plans, adding excitement and a need to flex. If you can- not flow with change, a tiff could break out. Tonight: Let out the teenager within! SCARY GARY Mark Buford TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Acknowledge limits between you and a roommate or loved one. Allow space for both of you to be comfortable. If spontaneous, you could end up throw- ing together an event. Your ability to flex and not get too uptight comes through. Tonight: Go with an opportunity. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Keep reaching out for some- one you care about. When disclosing a personal matter, you’re likely to have an Crosswords animated conversation. On some level, you might feel hurt by the other party’s DOGS of C-KENNEL Mick and Mason Mastroianni response. You have a lot of energy. Make sure not to displace it. Tonight: Out and about. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Curb a tendency to disclose too much. You would be best off saying little and listening a lot. You’ll learn some im- portant details about a heartfelt matter. Choose to flow with the moment. Use your energy to resolve an issue. Tonight: A quiet dinner for two. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You beam, and others cannot help but notice. As a result, you draw goodwill and attention. If there was ever B.C. Mastroianni and Hart a time to make a request of someone, it would be now. Ease up on being as struc- tured as you have been; go with the flow. Tonight: Just be yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HH You don’t take kindly to going un- noticed or taking a backseat. However, you might prefer being off someone’s ra- dar. Look at the positives. You’ll be able to spend some extra time on a domestic or personal matter. Tonight: Stay close to home. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Zero in on what you want. Timing works; you need to honor your ONE BIG HAPPY Rick Detorie schedule. Someone from a distance goes out of his or her way for you, but never- theless stuns you with his or her words or actions. Work on detaching. Tonight: Fol- low a friend’s lead. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)’ HHH For a good part of the day, you could be in the limelight without even knowing it. Whatever you do, give your normal 100 percent. Although you might not see an automatic reaction, in time, you’ll understand how important impres- sions can be. Tonight: Leader of the gang. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH News comes to you indirectly ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett or from a distance. If you try, you can handle nearly anything. Consider your options with care; a decision to go a new way could always have repercussions that you might not have anticipated. Tonight: Trying a new spot. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You could be in a situation that’s difficult to negotiate. You alone under- stand the repercussions and implications. Consider that few people could manage what comes up as well as you can. Be Cryptoquip happy that you’re there. Tonight: Indulge a loved one, or let someone know how much you care. ZACK HILL John Deering and John Newcombe AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Usually, others seek you out, but today, the roles are reversed. Understand how much control you gain by structur- ing your own day and plans. Let the per- son you’re with know about others; you made the choice to be with him or her. Tonight: Make it memorable. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH You feel as though you’d like to relax by plunging into a hobby or favorite pas- time. By all means, do so, but don’t be sur- prised if you find that many interruptions occur. Tonight: Early to bed.
