(NJ) - A wine and liquor store run by the family of state Supreme Court nominee Phillip Kwon forfeited nearly $160,000 to federal authorities last month to settle civil charges that more than $2 million was deposited into the business’s bank account illegally, court records show.
The case, filed in June in U.S. District Court, Eastern District of New York, alleged that on 222 occasions from April 2010 to February 2011, cash deposits of slightly less than $10,000 were placed in the business’s checking account to avoid government scrutiny
