Employer's liability for withheld taxes
§ 675. Employer's liability for withheld taxes.--Every employer required to deduct and withhold tax under this article is hereby made liable for such tax.

Any amount of tax actually deducted and withheld under this article shall be held to be a special fund in trust for the tax commission.
