NORWICH – This past Friday, Nov. 6, three cases, one involving heroin, were heard by Judge Frank B. Revoir Jr. in Chenango County Court.

First Assistant District Attorney Michael D. Ferrarese was present on behalf of the people.

• Rory J. Tanner was in Chenango County Court with his attorney, Public Defender John Cameron.

Tanner had been previously sentenced to a probation period on previous charges. However, a bench warrant was issued for Tanner after the probation department filed a violation of probation petition.

According to the District Attorney's Office, the warrant charges Tanner with burglary in the second degree, a class C violent felony.

“There are two violations I believe. On behalf of my client, I would deny the allegations entirely. Before we schedule a hearing, I would ask to conference this matter,” said Cameron.

“The denials have been noted for the record and we can re-schedule this matter for a conference,” said Revoir.

Tanner was remanded back to the Chenango County Correctional Facility.

The conference was tentatively scheduled for today, Tuesday Nov. 10 at 1:30 p.m.

• Thomas J. Mulverhill, 35, appeared in court with his attorney, Public Defender John Cameron, to be arraigned on his three count indictment.

Mulverhill was charged with burglary in the third degree, a class C felony; grand larceny in the fourth degree, a class E felony; and petit larceny, a class A misdemeanor.

On behalf of his client, Cameron entered not guilty pleas to all three of the charges mentioned.

Ferrarese filed his affidavit of service at this time, stating, “I believe he is out on $1,000 bail. I'd only ask what kind of contacts he has in Chenango County to determine if he is a flight risk at this time.”

It was made known to the court and people that Mulverhill currently resides in Cortland with his two children.

It was also alleged by the court that what was stolen by Mulverhill, leading to his arrest, was electronics from a Town of Norwich business.
