A federal court yesterday sentenced a man to 10 years in prison for his role in a biodiesel credit fraud scheme that brought in more than $41 million. James Jariv, 64, of Las Vegas was also made to forfeit up to $6 million in cash and other assets and to pay another $6 million in restitution. Jariv was sentenced in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada. Jariv is the second man to be sentenced to prison for the scheme; in April, Nathan Stoliar, 64, of Australia received a two-year sentence after pleading guilty to five felonies. Jariv also pleaded guilty to five counts.
