Richard Hatch spent more than three years in prison for tax evasion before being released in 2009.
Sources suggest that he has been serving a three-year term of supervised release. During that period, he was supposed to refile his 2000 and 2001 taxes and pay what he owed, but he never did.

After he served additional time, the requirement that he file an amended return was eventually dropped.
