The sentencing of John Manis Richards after pleading guilty to one count of grand larceny will be before Honorable Larry Starcher in Gilmer County Circuit Court at 10:00 a.m. March 16.
Last August, Richards, represented by his attorney Christopher Moffatt, entered into a plea deal over alleged crimes he committed in Gilmer County, related to the theft of merchandise and a truck from Hardman Supply in 2007.
A jury trial to hear the case was canceled.
A count charging him with breaking and entering was dismissed, by a motion from prosecutor Hough.
Richards remains on bond.
