Drunken driving heard in Delaware

Delhi News Bureau

DELHI — Drunken driving and probation violation cases were heard Monday in Delaware County Court before Judge Carl Becker.

The defendants and charges were:

• Michael Romand, 45, of Kiamesha was sentenced on a charge of driving while intoxicated, which stemmed from an incident on Dec. 3 in Deposit.

Becker sentenced Romand to one to three years to run concurrently with a sentence he is serving out of Sullivan County on a probation violation charge.

Sarah Braen, Romand's attorney, asked that he be given a recommendation to the Willard program, a 90-day drug and alcohol treatment program conducted in prison. Becker said he will make the recommendation. Romand told the court he was on the way home from work, after having had three drinks, when his car hit a patch of ice and rolled over.

• Gregory L. Cooper, 46, of Jefferson appeared on a violation of probation charge for failing to pay $1,640 in fines on a driving while intoxicated charge that stemmed from an incident on Nov. 10, 1999.

Cooper was originally sentenced to five years' probation in Otsego County Court on Feb. 4, 2002.

Cooper was released on his own recognizance to reappear with an attorney on May 27.

• Anthony A. Lame, 43, of the Walton Motel, in Walton, was arraigned on two counts of driving while intoxicated failure to stop at a traffic device and consumption of alcohol in a motor vehicle. He pleaded innocent on all counts.

Lame's charges stem from an incident on Nov. 11 in the town of Hamden.

Lame was released on his own recognizance. His trial is scheduled for Oct. 7.
