BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN star MICHELLE WILLIAMS' father was ordered to face an extradition hearing on Wednesday (18OCT06) over tax evasion charges in the US.
Australian police, responding to a request from US authorities, arrested LARRY WILLIAMS, a prominent stock market trader in May (06) in Sydney.
The 64-year-old flew Down Under earlier this year (06) to begin a month-long speaking tour in Australia and New Zealand.
After his arrest, Williams was released on $753,000 (GBP418,000) bail.
Appearing before Sydney's Central Local Court, Williams was ordered on Wednesday to face a hearing on 26 March (06).
The US Internal Revenue Service wants to question Williams, a resident of the Virgin Islands, about a possible $1.5 million (GBP833,000) in unpaid taxes from book royalties and earning from international seminars he conducted between 1990 and 2001.
