LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Lawyers for Bart Reagor state he has officially filed for appeals from the guilty judgement of lying to a bank, and the sentence of 14 years in federal prison that followed.

According to a court document filed on March 14, Reagor gave notice through his attorney that he is appealing the October conviction of making a false statement to the International Bank of Commerce about his intentions of using $1.7 million of a $10 million loan from IBC to Reagor-Dykes Auto Group.
