Former state Rep. Trevor Lee will make his first court appearance Oct. 28 where he will enter a plea to four felony fraud and forgery charges related to his effort to obtain a home loan.

Before that, Lee is required to make an appointment at the Salt Lake County jail where he will be booked, fingerprinted and photographed, then released until his court date.

The Layton Republican, who lost his primary in June, was charged by the Utah Attorney General on Monday and promptly resigned his House seat.

He is accused of forging documents to inflate his income from one employer and submitting a fake job offer from another in order to get a $1 million loan for a home that also would enable him to cash out $317,190 from his prior home.

Videos recorded by the CEO of one of the companies showed Lee asking for a $93,000 advance, with Lee promising to help the company get a contract with Hill Air Force Base to “make him whole,” according to court documents.

The investigation began in April into allegations of check fraud that were not the basis for the latest criminal charges.

The conservative firebrand was known for sponsoring legislation banning pride flags, attempting to rename Harvey Milk Boulevard in Salt Lake City after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk and trying to cut off state benefits to undocumented immigrants and their children. He lost his reelection bid to Bob Stevenson, 66%-34%, in the Republican primary in June, but would have served through the end of the year.

The counts of communications fraud and mortgage fraud filed against Lee are second-degree felonies, which, upon conviction, are punishable by up to 15 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. A count of forgery and a count of possessing a forged document are third-degree felonies, punishable by up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
