ATLANTA - A former Georgia legislator who worked as an accountant and tax preparer is headed to an April trial on charges of tax evasion that have been pending against her for two years.
Fulton Superior Court Judge Michael Johnson scheduled former state Rep. Jeanette Jamieson's trial at a status hearing Friday.
The Toccoa Democrat was charged in July 2009 with failing to file a state income tax return for calendar years 2006 and 2007 despite earning more than $127,000 in 2006 and more than $61,000 in 2007.
She could face up to five years in prison and a $100,000 fine for each charge.
Jamieson says she is not guilty and claims she's a victim of selective prosecution because of her politics.
