NORWICH – When the Chenango County Court convened for a morning session on Monday, June 27, the case of Sheldon H. Rose was heard.

Rose, 43, of Norwich, was allegedly hired to put a new roof on a house on Bourbon St., in the Town of Norwich on Mar. 8, 2016. The defendant obtained $1,100 in payment for the work. Pursuant to Article 3-A of the Lien Law of the State of New York, the defendant was required to hold said $1,100 as trustee in trust for the benefit of the work and expend said funds only for the purpose of performing roof work on the aforementioned home.

It is alleged that the defendant did knowingly, intentionally and unlawfully misappropriate approximately $1,100 of said trust funds for his own use and benefit, thus failing to set aside the funds in a trust as required by law. It is also alleged that Rose did steal $700 of the money that was given to him to perform the work.

Rose faces charges of grand larceny in the fourth degree, a class E felony; and petit larceny, a class A misdemeanor.
