Denver Manufacturing Company
Megan (chair of the board of directors) and Matthew (company president) each own 50% of Denver Manufacturing Company. Denver Manufacturing Company is experiencing difficult financial times. In fact, last month, Megan used $550,000 of payroll taxes and income withheld from employee paychecks to pay a creditor that threatened to cut off supplies.
Megan willfully used these government funds for the operations of the business, but it was not enough. The company missed the next two payrolls, and today, other creditors took action to shut down Denver Manufacturing Company altogether.
