Eleanor Daugerdas, wife of convicted tax attorney Paul Daugerdas, faced a legal setback as a federal judge denied her request for penalties over alleged mishandling of evidence by the government. Judge Denise Cote ruled that redacted bank records were sufficient, dismissing claims of prosecutorial misconduct. This decision marks another chapter in the Daugerdas family's ongoing legal challenges, rooted in one of the largest tax fraud cases in U.S. history.
