Paul Miller

Who is Paul Miller?

Paul Miller is a former Democratic member of the North Carolina General Assembly representing the state's twenty-ninth House district, including constituents in Durham county. A computer consultant and investment advisor from Durham, North Carolina, Miller served almost three terms in the state House. Miller resigned amid allegations that he had committed mail fraud when he tried to convince the U.S. Department of Education that he had paid off more than $20,000 in student loans. Miller was arrested June 8, 2006 on charges that he sent copies of doctored checks to the U.S. Department of Education to make it appear that he had paid off more than $20,000 in student loan debt to avoid garnishment of his pay. The U.S. attorney filed a warrant for Miller's arrest in U.S. District Court on Tuesday, charging the Durham Democrat with making a false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or representation to the federal government and using the U.S. Postal Service to execute a scheme or artifice to defraud.
