Dancehall artiste Moses 'Beenie Man' Davis is to return to the Civil Division of the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court on January 22.
The deejay appeared in court on Monday but a new date was set after his lawyers informed the court that they were trying to source certain documents from Shocking Vibes, the company previously responsible for the artiste's career. They said the procurement of these documents would help them to enter into negotiations with the Tax Department.
The deejay is facing charges of tax evasion due to his alleged failure to pay his income tax.
The 'Doctor' reportedly owes the Government $29.29 million in back taxes and $18.64 million in penalties, bringing the outstanding amount to $47.93 million. When he last appeared before the court, the deejay said he was not aware that he had outstanding payments and said his management team was responsible for such business.
