Radar, he didn't use the "taxes are unlawful" defense. He used the "i got screwed by my advisors" defense. He was convicted of 3 counts of failing to file, but will face little time in jail. He will, however, have to pay all taxes an penalties.

To be convicted of the felony charge he was facing the IRS would need to prove that he knew taxes were non-voluntary and chose not to pay them. Pretty high burden of proof.
