OCALA, Fla. — Lawyers for Wesley Snipes are asking a Florida judge to let the 45-year-old actor leave the country while they appeal his three federal tax convictions.
Snipes wants to work on films in London and Bangkok, Thailand, according to documents filed Wednesday in federal court.
Snipes was sentenced in April to three years in prison on three misdemeanor counts of willful failure to file his income-tax returns.
