Tire deflating judge resigns administrative post
August 14, 2009
Maryland: Judge Robert Nalley has resigned his position as Administrative Judge for the Charles County branch of the Seventh Circuit, Maryland Circuit Courts. Nalley has acknowledged deflating a tire on a car that was parked illegally near the courthouse. He told reporters that he did it because leaving notes on cars parked in the restricted area had proven ineffective.
Nalley will remain seated on the Seventh Circuit bench. La Plata Police Chief Cassin Gittings says an investigation into the tire deflation is ongoing.[1]
