Kirk O. Martin, Esq.

Lay year when a young man in the county drove a car with no insurance while drinking and speeding, killed a young friend and another was severly hospitalized for over 3 months and is impaired for life received no jail time, restitution or just sentence. The young man was given 2 years probation! Let that sink in!!! Wonder what he would have done if it were his child.

It is very good to see that D.A. Martin filed class E felony counts for each of the deaths of the horses Defendant Fenton caused for his terribly wrongful actions at Tioga Downs last November 9. Let us hope that the jury will have as much courage and conviction when judging Fenton.

I had a tenant Debbie Harris the did not pay rent for two and a half years. We were scheduled for a eviction Hearing in Waverly. She was advised by her attorney that if she had a medical hold on her she did not have to attend for eviction hearing. So she proceeded to smash out 22 windows out of my house. She was arrested. I talked to the DA. Cuz it cost me over $87,000 to fix. He advised me he didn't think it was worth giving her a felony. So they were going to give her probation and restitution. Turns out for months later she's not on any type of Probation and she is not made any restitution payments for the damages to the house. Or for the eviction proceedings I won. Now the da refuses to return my phone calls

The DA's in Tioga County are awesome people. They have a hard job but do a good job !!! thank you and be safe.
