OCEAN TOWNSHIP — The municipal court here has been flooded this morning with calls from people who want to know if their case has been mishandled by a Superior Court clerk accused of altering checks valued at more than $18,000.
"It's not our court or our employee and we have nothing to do with it," said Antoinette Bodine, the municipal court administrator for Ocean Township.
The woman accused of the theft, Lisa Morton, 41, of Freehold, works for the state
Superior Court's finance division ofice, which is located in Ocean Township, the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office said. That office has no connection to the municipal court, Bodine said.
"I have four women who work here and since this morning they have been receiving constant calls about this case," Bodine said. "We just want people to know they're calling the wrong place."
Questions regarding Morton should be addressed to the court administrator for the Monmouth Vicinage in Freehold, officials said.
