Michael Cohen, already under pressure from a federal criminal investigation into his business and financial dealings, has been hit this month with more than $185,000 in new state warrants for unpaid taxes on his taxicab companies.
Added to his previous tab, that brings the total to $282,000 owed to New York state by 16 taxi medallion-holding companies owned by Cohen or members of his family, including Mad Dog Cab Corp., Smoochie Cab Corp., Golden Child Cab Corp. and N.Y. Futon Taxi Corp. A lawyer for Cohen declined to comment.
Michael Cohens Other Woe: Mounting Unpaid Taxes on NYC Cabs
Cohen, a former Trump Organization Inc. executive, has been President Donald Trumps personal lawyer and has claimed to be a loyal fixer for his longtime boss. He claims he drew on a home-equity loan to pay $130,000 to Stormy Daniels, a porn actress who said she had sex with Trump in 2006, to buy her silence in the run-up to the 2016 election.
Before he started working for Trump, Cohen built his wealth in the taxi business in New York and Chicago.
