The State of Texas, on behalf of several counties and cities including Scurry County and Snyder, filed a lawsuit in Travis County against the two owners of Reagor Dykes Auto Group.
On Monday, Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office filed the suit to recoup more than $52,000 in back taxes and interest from Bart Reagor and Rick Dykes.
The lawsuit is seeking $4,988 Paxton claims is owed to the state from Scurry County sales, as well $1,158 owed to the City of Snyder and $386 owed to Scurry County.
The totals represent money owed from July through September 2018. Reagor Dykes Auto Group filed for bankruptcy in August 2018.
The latest lawsuit stated the money is being sought against the two men because they are the responsible parties of the auto group.
The lawsuit stated that under provisions of current state and federal tax codes, Reagor and Dykes are responsible since their names appear as owners of the business.
Also included in the suit are the cities of Plainview, Lubbock, Amarillo, Lamesa and Floydada, as well as Dawson County, Lubbock County and Hale County.
In early April this year, vehicles were removed from the dealership’s Snyder location as part of the auto group’s bankruptcy proceedings. The dealership is no longer open in Snyder.
