A Long Island lawyer has been found in civil contempt for repeated interference with a receiver appointed to run The Sloppy Tuna, a sometimes-wild beachfront nightspot that has helped transform Montauk into a party destination.
The lawyer, A. Todd Merolla, also was found in contempt because he skipped a court-ordered hearing in January, telling Suffolk County Supreme Court Justice Jerry Garguilo in a note, “I have significant concerns regarding the procedural and jurisdictional posture of the scheduled contempt hearing for January 9-10, 2017 to the extent directed at me.”
