![]() On July 29, Routh learned he had been charged with felony larceny in Randolph County. “These attempts were met with what can only be described as a contemptuous rebuke,” the suit reads. But, according to the suit, the company did not accept the payment. On July 27, Routh wrote a check for what he had left of the overpayment along with some of his personal funds to his lawyer in Graham, Hunt Johnson, so Johnson could arrange a partial repayment to the company. He calls it a good-faith mistake, but the Asheboro Police contacted him on July 14 also demanding the return of the money and told him he could face felony charges if he did not. He believed the deposit was a “long-awaited and promised lump sum settlement,” and he spent an undisclosed amount of that money paying debts and “other obligations” and as gifts to friends and family.
