The Dickson Firm represents nursing home residents and their families in cases against the owners and the operators of nursing homes throughout the State of Ohio.
The former owner of Skyline Healthcare will stand trial next year on allegations that he perpetuated a nearly $39 million fraud that played into the collapse of his quickly assembled, multi-state nursing home portfolio.
During a brief hearing Thursday, Judge Susan Wigenton of the US District Court for the District of New Jersey set a Feb. 18 trial date for Joseph Schwartz.
In May, Wigenton rejected a plea deal between Schwartz and the US Attorney’s Office. That deal had called for Schwartz to spend a year and one day in prison and pay $5 million in restitution.
