tax folks for a tax lien dating back to the US Aviator days.

What tax lien was that??


Failure to pay unemployment tax, from 1996. It's hard to read, but it looks
like the amount is a big $196:

Seems to me that Florida would have forgotten that one long ago, but in January
of this year, a notice was filed indicating that the lien had finally been
settled:

I think the odds are very thin that Zoom had just come across the old bill and
said, "Gee, guess I'd better pay this off." He undoubtedly got dunned by the
Florida Department of Revenue.

His bankruptcy case was finally closed by the court two years ago. Zoom ended
up paying about 2/3rds of the amount he'd agreed on to settle the trustee's
fraud/perjury lawsuit, but IIRC, the agreement required that *all* back taxes
had to be paid. Suspect this one had been left over.
