Actor Stephen Baldwin was charged Thursday with failing to pay New York state taxes for three years, amassing a $350,000 debt.
Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe said Baldwin, of Upper Grandview, skipped his taxes in 2008, 2009 and 2010.
The youngest of the four acting Baldwin brothers pleaded not guilty at an arraignment and was freed without bail. His lawyer, Russell Yankwitt, said Baldwin should not have been charged.
"Mr. Baldwin did not commit any crimes, and he's working with the district attorney's office and the New York State Tax Department to resolve any differences," Yankwitt said.
The district attorney said Baldwin could face up to four years in prison if convicted. The actor is due back in court on Feb. 5.
Zugibe said Baldwin owes more than $350,000 in tax and penalties.
"We cannot afford to allow wealthy residents to break the law by cheating on their taxes," the district attorney said.

Episode 5 of the current series of Undercover Boss saw the chief of npower, Kevin McCullough, head undercover to see what goes on behinds the scenes of what is one of the UK’s top utility companies.
In addition to visiting a call-centre in the North-East and a under-threat power plant, McCullough met Kyle – a meter installer from Leeds. But it wasn’t Kyle’s meter-fitting skills which caught the attention, it was his remarkable resemblance for TV funny-man Peter Kay.
npower bosses had clearly spotted the potential in Kyle, or indeed his good looks, and quickly snapped him up as the new face of the energy giants advertising campaigns.
“We’d like you to be on all of the new npower marketing literature.” said McCullough. “It’s a good face”
And for npower it certainly was. The brand, and indeed Peter Kay, spent much of yesterday evening trending on Twitter following the broadcast.

The baby of the Baldwin acting clan was a 'badly behaved dumb jock' until he found the Lord. Now, days after his eviction from Celebrity Big Brother, he tells Miranda Sawyer about his 18 tattoos and how he saw the devil in two of his housemates
Stephen Baldwin, 43, has 18 tattoos. "They represent various moments in my life," he says. "Whether it be showing my love for my woman in a very macho way – there are three of those – to the ones which express my commitment to sobriety. I have one for my children. The 3.30 one on the back of my neck is the time I'm supposed to be home! No, it's a scripture in the Bible that I feel compelled to remind myself of: John 3.30. "I must decrease so that he may increase." It's about consciousness of humility. I'm walking this walk and my life has nothing to do with my perception of the world.
