Tax agency settles case with ex-attorneyThe state's tax agency has reached a settlement with a former department attorney who challenged his dismissal.David Prager III, of Topeka, was fired as the Department of Revenue's chief tax attorney in May of 1997, approximately five months after he sent a memo to Gov. Bill Graves charging that former Revenue Secretary John LaFaver and other agency officials had illegally settled tax disputes with large corporations.Prager wrote the memo after he was publicly criticized for helping to create what a national business magazine said was a hostile business climate.
