A California real estate developer was sentenced Friday to one month in prison for paying $75,000 to help inflate his daughter's college entrance exam score.

Robert Flaxman, 63, from Los Angeles, was sentenced in Boston's federal court after pleading guilty in May to a single count of fraud and conspiracy.

He was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani to one month in prison, one year of supervised release and was also ordered to complete 250 hours of community service and to pay a fine of $50,000.

He is the 10th parent to be sentenced in a widespread college bribery scheme.

In earlier court documents, the FBI also accused Flaxman of paying an admissions consultant $250,000 to fabricate application documents that were used to get his son into the University of San Diego

Flaxman admitted to conspiring with William 'Rick' Singer to have his daughter's ACT exam corrected by a proctor, thereby fraudulently inflating the score, The Los Angeles Times reported.

He did so by first taking steps to secure extended time for his daughter to take the ACT. That was followed by a petition to move the exam to a test center in Houston, Texas, that Singer 'controlled' through one of his proctors.

Flaxman's daughter and the child of another client of Singer both took the ACT with the assistance of a co-conspirator.

Riddell assisted in answering exam questions and instructed the students to answer different questions incorrectly so that the ACT would not suspect cheating.

Flaxman's daughter used the score to apply to several schools and ultimately enrolled at one of them, prosecutors said.

Federal prosecutors had recommended a sentence of eight months in prison, one year of supervised release and a $40,000 fine.

They did not identify where she goes to college but said the school suspended her for a semester when the scheme was uncovered.

In earlier court documents, the FBI also accused Flaxman of paying an admissions consultant $250,000 to fabricate application documents that were used to get his son into the University of San Diego.

Those allegations were not pursued, however, and they weren't included in Flaxman's plea agreement with prosecutors.

Flaxman's lawyers say he agreed to the testing scheme because his daughter's test scores were too low to get into college.

He wasn't trying to get her into an elite or exclusive school, they said, and he wasn't chasing social status 'ego gratification.'

Prosecutors said he deserved prison time, nonetheless, because his daughter ended up getting involved in the scheme, and because Flaxman sought a tax deduction for the $75,000 bribe, which was funneled through a sham charity.

Flaxman is the owner and CEO of Crown Realty & Development Inc., a real estate firm that operates and develops commercial property in California, Arizona, North Carolina and elsewhere. Its website says it manages nearly $1 billion in property.

More than 50 people have been charged in the scheme, which involves wealthy and famous parents accused of paying bribes to rig their children's test scores or to get them admitted to elite universities as recruited athletes.

College admissions consultant William 'Rick' Singer pleaded guilty to fraud and conspiracy charges for allegedly raking in large sums of money to get his clients' kids into elite colleges

A total of 15 parents have pleaded guilty, while 19 are contesting the charges. Trials are expected to begin in 2020.

Desperate Housewives star Felicity Huffman, 56, was sentenced to 14 days in federal prison in September following her involvement in the college admissions scandal.

She broke down down in court moments before she was sentenced saying: 'I have inflicted more damage than I could've ever imagined,' and claiming her actions were 'frightened, stupid and so wrong.'

She became the first parent sentenced in the college admissions scandal that ensnared dozens of wealthy and well-connected mothers and fathers.

Prosecutors said parents schemed to manipulate test scores and bribed coaches to get their children into elite schools by having them labeled as recruited athletes for sports they didn't even play.

Rick Singer, who has pleaded guilty, bribed a test proctor to correct the teenager's answers.

Among those contesting the charges are 'Full House' actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, who are accused of paying to get their two daughters into the University of Southern California as athletes

'I would like to apologize again to my daughter, my husband, my family and the educational community for my actions,' Huffman had said in an emailed statement after the sentencing hearing.

'And I especially want to apologize to the students who work hard every day to get into college, and to their parents who make tremendous sacrifices supporting their children.'

Huffman, 56, reported to the low-security, female Federal Correction Institute in Dublin, California on Tuesday after she pleaded guilty to the charges.

Among those contesting the charges are 'Full House' actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband, Mossimo Giannulli, who are accused of paying to get their two daughters into the University of Southern California as athletes.

It has been claimed Loughlin will ask Felicity Huffman about her prison stay in case she has to serve time for her alleged role in the nationwide college admissions scandal.

'She's definitely hoping that Felicity's time in prison will go easy for her, because that will be a positive sign that, if Lori has to serve time, that she'll be able to weather it as well,' a source told People.

'She wants to debrief Felicity after jail to find out what it was like and what her advice would be.'

Prosecutors have said that those parents who don't 'fess up to the charges could be hit with a longer sentence.
