Government Shutdown Means Tax Woes for LA Bakery Mr. Holmes Bakehouse - Eater LA

"Mr. Holmes Bakehouse, located in Highland Park and on Larchmont, is currently facing potential asset seizure by the IRS due to a payroll tax misunderstanding and complications arising from the U.S. government shutdown. The bakery's owner, Aaron Caddel, had been resolving the issue with Paychex before the shutdown stalled communications with the IRS. A notice of intent to seize assets was issued unless a payment of over $86,000 is made by January 23. Caddel is struggling to reach IRS case workers to resolve the issue, which could cause financial strain on the small business." - Farley Elliott
