Wesley Snipes has lost his appeal of a prison sentence he received in 2008 for three misdemeanor tax charges. A court in Ocala, Florida, sentenced Snipes to three years in jail for willfully failing to file tax returns from 1999 to 2004. In the appeal, Snipes said he should have been considered for probation and that the lower court should have allowed him to argue for a change of venue from Florida, where Snipes has a home, to New York, where he was born. The ruling did not specify where Snipes would be serving his sentence. No word on when the actor will officially check in behind bars.
