For Second Time, Wildenstein Family Of Art Dealers Cleared Of Tax Fraud Charges

“In fewer than five minutes in a Paris appeals courtroom on Friday, June 29, the surviving members of the art-dealing Wildenstein clan were cleared, for a second time, of defrauding French tax authorities out of millions of euros. The presiding judge in Paris’s court of appeals upheld the decision reached after a previous trial in January 2017.”
