Going on TV lands Ohioan in jail

---

The Associated Press

        CANTON — He lost his truck-for-sex case on TV's People's Court and then got jail time from an Ohio court for violating his probation by traveling to New York for the show.

        Stark Court County Common Pleas Judge Richard Reinbold Jr. sentenced Rick Remmy, a Barberton used-car dealer, Monday for violating requirements of probation for a 1998 theft conviction.

        Karen Kershaw of Akron had sued Mr. Remmy for $15,000, claiming her agreement to buy a truck included payments of cigarettes and sexual favors.

        People's Court Judge Jerry Sheindlin awarded Ms. Kershaw a $125 judgment last week.
