...court as a scofflaw, a term which New York City's Chief Magistrate John M. Murtagh uses to describe the many New Yorkers who habitually dispose of traffic tickets by tearing them up.* Magistrate Murtagh, who has long been waging bitter war on scofflawry, imposed upon Lee (118 unpaid tickets) a $5,900 fine or 590 days in jail and Adams (54 unpaid tickets) a $2,700 fine or 270 days in jail. Then, recollecting that New York police files bulged with some 2,000 more unpaid traffic summonses issued to gypsies, Magistrate Murtagh cunningly announced that he would...

...federal income taxes, Manhattan's Italian-born Gambler Frank Costello, floating loose on $50,000 bail, gingerly peeked at a suspicious Christmas greeting from New York State revenooers. If he expected the worst, he got it: a claim on Costello for a jarring $190,982.24 in unpaid state income taxes.

...great issue before the Commission is that inexperienced and frightened administrators have made security at any price--even at the risk of dealing unfairly with loyal public servants--the guiding principle of many loyalty programs. Among the worst of these malpractices is the unpaid suspension of accused employees until their cases come up for a hearing. This places a severe financial handicap on individuals in low-paid positions, for they must, without income, pay the costs of defending themselves.
