Wesley Snipes' Appeal Denied -- Must Serve 3 Years in Prison

[Mayhem]

Back in 2008, Snipes was found guilty of not filing tax returns from 1999 to 2001 ... and consequently failing to pay the government nearly $12,000,000.

Snipes was sentenced to 36 months in prison -- but appealed the case claiming, among other things,  that his sentence was "unreasonable." 

But today, the appeals court backed the original ruling -- shooting down Snipes' claims that his punishment was way too severe. 

No word on when Snipes will officially check in to the big house.
