UPDATE: Francis filed court documents Friday in a bid to have his accounts unfrozen, stating that the IRS "failed to follow statutory procedures, thus the levy is invalid."
The IRS should have given him notice and requested payment before seizing his money, the filing states.

Think how much Joe Francis had to make to owe nearly $34 million in taxes for three years.
We thought the Girls Gone Wild founder's trouble with the IRS was over—but everyone's favorite government agency is after Francis again, saying he didn't pay federal income taxes in 2001, 2002 and 2003.
According to a tax lien filed today and obtained by TMZ...we're all in the wrong business.
Francis supposedly failed to fork over $17.7 million in 2001, $11.2 million in 2002 and $4.9 million in 2003. He tells TMZ that the feds have frozen his various accounts amounting to more than $100 million and that he's planning to file for personal bankruptcy tomorrow.
Barely two weeks ago, a judge approved a plea deal that allowed Francis to plead guilty to two counts of filing false tax returns over for engaging in some shady activity with his business revenue in 2002 and 2003, as well as one count of bribing Nevada jail workers.
He was sentenced to time served and a year of probation.
