Lawmaker owes back taxes


A Yadkin County lawmaker says he expects to pay more than $77,000 in back taxes in the next couple weeks.

Rep. Darrell McCormick, a Republican, told the Winston-Salem Journal that a bookkeeping error in his commercial real estate and investment company in Winston-Salem led to the unpaid taxes.

Federal and state revenue officials say he owes as much as $88,000, but McCormick said the final bill will be lower.

The taxes cover 2004 and 2007.

Re: Lawmaker owes back taxes

Correction: You say "Rowan County lawmaker" in the first sentence. McCormick represents parts of Iredell, Surry, and Yadkin counties.
