EXHIBIT 2
ROSSIE TOWN COURT
908 County Route 3
Redwood, New York 13679
I would like to thank the Board for trusting and believing in me for my terms as judge for the
Town of Rossie.
I currently have four (4) charges brought against me by the Commission on Judicial Conduct.
I have never taken any money that was not mine, however, I am aware that my books are not
in an order which can show that. On January 17, 2013, Wayne Knight told me to open an
account for the Court's business at Community Bank. Mr. Knight did not give me any funds
to open these accounts. I opened bail account # 177011 and fine and surcharge account
# 177003. These accounts were opened with cash money from my personal cash.
Due to my having a hard time with the computer, both in understanding its use and the
computer not being set up correctly from day one, my book work was never forwarded to
TSLED properly. Not realizing the computer wasn't set up properly, I had not sent any
dispositions. I believe I have now taken care of this. Also, I did not have internet service at
the Court.
I have had several operations and sickness during the past 12 years, for which I have been on
strong medications which could have been some of the problems. This has taken a toll on me.
My eyes are getting very bad and I have to use a magnifying glass to read tickets and some of
the other paperwork.
Rather than put the Town through an expensive trial, and acknowledging many of the
disc.repancies for which I have been charged, I respectfully submit my resignation as of May
19, 2017. I will return all of the equipment and paperwork on or before May 19, 2017. l will
place everything in the cupboard in the Courtroom.
Again, I would like to thank all of the Board Members for your support and trust.
