Mrs Lorraine Tobenkin won a court round in Alameda County Superior Court seeking an accounting of funds she claims were entrusted to attorney Robert C Wright by her husband Tobenkin, a former San Lorenzo pharmacist serving a state prison term for Med Cal fraud. Judge Gordon Minder deferred May 31 on her request for temporary support of 1.5 million dollars a month.
