Lawyer testifies billing method common among attorneys
Elyria jurist hears defense lawyer Jack Mahon charged with bilking the county over 5000 dollars while court appointed for poor defendants. He defended billing 90 minutes per arraignment and separate charges for multi case work, arguing he billed service time rather than clock time and may reconstruct bills when dates are unclear. Judge Mahoney will render verdict next week amid questions of prorating and accuracy.

Waste firm honored for wild life and conservation work near Williamsburg
CECOS International and managers, previously convicted of hazardous waste violations, transformed 175 acres near a closed landfill in Clermont County into a model wildlife habitat. They built Crescent Isle Lake, planted 4,000 saplings, erected 24 bird boxes, and added brush piles with 38 volunteers. The Wildlife Habitat Enhancement Council in Silver Spring honored 48 sites nationwide. The company stopped accepting hazardous waste in 1988 and agreed in 1990 to clean up contamination and never reuse the property.
