Delivery & Returns
Rory Phillips – Scotland
I don't usually have the patience to leave reviews, but this company was so accommodating, I just had to. On visiting their shop in London last weekend, I was tempted by a mid-century Danish desk, but assumed the delivery charge would outweigh its value, as I live in Inverness. Unfounded! After Noah not only delivered it free of charge, but I had it by the end of the week!
Free British Mainland Parcels takes 3-7 Days
(depending on stock and/or van availability in your area)
1 Man & Van Deliveries takes 7-21 Days
(depending on stock and/or van availability in your area)
* All Standard Deliveries are to your door only and depend on your location & courier schedule.
You may need to assist the driver with larger items.
For upgrades or add-ons to this service, choose one of the options below…
Choose Faster Postage
Weengs from next day, or delivery before 9am or Saturday delivery
Midday deadline for same day dispatch. Too late? Give us a ring and we'll always try and catch the post.
Central London Same Day
1 Man deliveries to Central London as quickly as 30 minutes. Saturdays and Sundays, too.
Orders before 4pm. Collections 10am - 5pm. The courier will drive directly to you upon collection, transit time is dependant on traffic.
Courier may need assistance on arrival.
Choose a 2 Man Delivery
We can offer faster deliveries, a 2 hour time slot and help with assembly or putting it in the right room.
…and don't worry, Upgraded Delivery Costs are clearly displayed in the Order Summary before you pay.
Not sure what to choose? Then email [email protected] or give us a call and ask for Sunny, Simon or Matt on 020 7359 4281.
Please bear in mind…
We're a small, family-run firm and our furniture deliveries are handled and operated from space in two warehouses - one in Sussex and the other in Yorkshire. We use two lovely, family-run companies to carry out our deliveries and each operates with one van, enclosing two nice chaps with your goods. Because they trundle around covering the whole of mainland Britain between them, they obviously aren't in every area all the time. This means that some parts of the country are visited once every couple of weeks, while other areas are covered more frequently. When your furniture is delivered into one of their warehouses, we ask them to do their best to ensure that they deliver within 14 days of when they've received your goods. That obviously means you can get lucky and have your furniture delivered almost as soon as it arrives, or you may have to wait a little bit.
If timing is absolutely crucial to you; perhaps you can't get time off work, etc, then a delivery at your convenience is always possible (probably!). Where there's a will, there's a way - but obviously this comes at a price - and is not covered either by our free standard delivery or our £25 upgraded one.
If you have particular requirements, please ask us for a bespoke quote.
All delivery dates are obviously dependant upon the item/s being in stock and available to despatch.
Free standard delivery for items such as sofas, is to the first available, safe place within your premises.
It does not include unwrapping, removal of packaging or any element of assembly - nor does it include taking items upstairs within your own dwelling or office. If this is required, please see prices above.
We will not deliver through upstairs windows, over garden fences or premises with access that may be dangerous.
Delivery (except the £25 one-person London option) is not carried out on weekends or after hours.
Some of our transport partners may make special arrangements with you, but these are likely to be chargeable in addition to the price you pay us and should be settled directly with the delivery company.
For paid deliveries, our drivers will try to give you a 2 hour window, but this is dependant upon a number of factors,
such as traffic and other unforeseen events, so is never guaranteed.
Free deliveries are untimed, but you may call the driver on the day to get an idea of an approximate time of arrival.
In order for us to be able to offer a free service we consolidate deliveries to ensure both a full van and that a number of drops are going to the same area.
This is why we can only say that it takes between 7 & 21 days.
Our delivery drivers wear protective footwear by law and cannot safely take them off when entering your premises.
Whilst they will attempt to ensure they are as clean as possible, in circumstances where you are concerned about your floor covering, for example if it is raining, it is your responsibility to ensure that adequate protection is provided.
Thanks,After Noah.
It's easy to be wise after the event, so we hope we can help with our easy Returns Policy.
In general, if you've purchased something from our website, simply tell us by email, within 14 days of receipt of the goods, that you've changed your mind.
Once you've told us, we'll send you a returns authorisation number (RAN) and you then have a further 14 days to get them back to us.
When we've got them back, we'll refund you in full for the goods.
The only bit you don't get back is the outward delivery cost and any cost you incur in returning the goods to us. However, we will refund your postage or delivery costs if your delivery arrived damaged, broken or otherwise not working.
There are some situations where this returns policy doesn't apply. e.g. Special Orders, ex-display items & seasonal goods.
If in doubt, or to find out what applies to your specific purchase - you can read our Terms & Conditions of Sale in full - please click here.
Thanks, After Noah

Without opening another subject, muslims are also not saved. I believe that everybody gets the message and gets to hear the Gospel. being captive to one's environment or else is not an excuse.
Many muslims, about 6 millions in Africa alone, according to AL-Jazeera network, are converting to christianity. Islam, when you get to read more about it, is a brutal, violent and unhuman religion, and anybody who really cares for the truth will reject it, and search for the real God. I am sure God will lead the way of this person seeking after Him to embrace christianity.
Yes, it is a great gift. But, it is by far easy in the West, I would not call the life of christians in Islamic countries as easy, at all. You have to live in Turkey, Egypt,Iran or Yemen as a christian to know how difficult it is to be christian. It is the christianity in which the Cross is carried each and every day.
-I am not advocating mistreatment of the unbelievers
But if you imply that we should appease them, then I strongly disagree.
Away from the Pope's incident, would it not be easier if the martyrs did not die for the faith or offered incense to the idols, kissed their statues and confessed that they respect the Pagan worshippers faith ? Love the unbelievers, but don't compromise the faith.
My concern is more the other christians who don't study Islam and they just believe whatever is presented in the media. (I don't mean you specifically, this is in a general sense). The liberal media wants this big group hug, and we should refuse to do so.
You don't have to take an oversimplistic view. Compare the circumstances, the orders and the reasons why the masacres were undertaken in both cases, and come to an educated conclusion. Did Judaism spread with the sword ? Did christianity take the way of wars to spread christianity ? Never. Even the Crusades were not christian wars, they took the Cross as a cover.In the Quran, it is a clear order to kill the christians, Jews and all other non-muslim wherever they are, unless they pay a tribute.
We are told to live in peace with all unbelievers, but without compromising the faith. I didn;t mean to make any slanderous comments about Pope John Paul II or the catholic church. I just wanted to make sure that Islam is understood correctly.
As I told you, I am not praticularly interested in this incident as much as in the dogmas of Pope Infallability, which would be exposed if he acted in a wrong way in any incident concerning the faith.
I wish you a holy and miserable Great Lent!Jim C.
The Pope is the supreme legislative authority in the Roman Catholic Church. Everyone has recourse to him, but he answers only to God, not to a Synod of Bishops or anything like that. You can't force him to retire, much less depose him. Catholics are free to correct me, but that's how I understand the situation, and I don't recall reading anything in the CIC regarding deposition of a Pope, forced retirement, etc.
There are precedents for the deposition of a pope. The last time it happened was at the Council of Constance, which ended the Great Western Schism early in the 15th century.
So he kissed the Koran. Big deal! We don't need to justify it. The EP used to be appointed by the Sultan.
Remember you guys wanted the turban not the mitre.
The Sword of the Prophet: Islam--History, theology, Imact on the World which is published by Regina Orthodox Press. I am currently reading the first chapter on the origins of the Arabic peoples. The author states that "Mohammad was born into a pagan society but by the end of the 6th Century it was different from the paganism as commonly understood in its proto-monotheistic tendencies."
In the U.S., for example, the ideology of freedom of religion is sacrosanct and necessary in our society. I would add to this is that I believe in "market principles" when it comes to evangelization in the U.S. So I guess that I have to "respect" Islam in America
And now 37+ million abortions in the U.S. alone!
Thanks to our "overseers" who took away our edit capabilities I couldn't revise it subsequently. [Actually, thanks to those who abused the privilege of having an edit capability!]
don't intend to open up the subject of the Crusades again but I am (partially) convinced that the Crusades, as problematic as they were, kept Western Europe ultimately from going Moslem. No, I can't prove it. But the Western European incursion into the Middle East caused the Moslems kingdoms to lose a lot of energy otherwise available for conquest. The purposes were not totally aggressive even if the tactics were. Islam was becoming ascendent while the West was relatively backwards. And the Byzantine East was caught in the middle!
The timing is also becoming bad for the West. The West is rapidly de-Christianizing IMHO. You might recall that the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah rejected Yahweh and fell subsequently to the Assyrians and Babylonians respectively. There is a lesson in here "somewhere" for the West.
Ultimately, the Crusades were not successful as best as I can tell, at least for Byzantium and for Christians in the Middle East.
I don't want to open up another can of worms, but the dogma of Papal Infallibility really has nothing to do with Koran kissing! But perhaps we should leave this "issue" for a resounding cat fight to be fought on OC.net for another day. Meow!
. . . It is a complicated issue. Many arabic books written by muslims, who during their research apostated, make a strong link between Muhamed and Christian Heresies. In any case, it is a good point of research but of little importance to the current state of affairs. I agree on the concept. But for every rule, there is an exception. Islam, by nature, is very different. Islam exists as a religion and a state, and it has been exercised as such since Muhamed's time till the fall of the Ottman Empire.
In addition, Muslims themselves do not reciprocate the same courtesy to the other religions; meaning, that once they are in power, they will oppress the other religions as much as they can. . . .
I fear the islamisation of the West. Muslims make babies at rates nobody can keep up with, and they will use democracy to end democracy. I have been laughed at many times when I talked to American friends about it. They can't perceive it that a free country like the USA for example can be a dictatorship. They overlook the fact that muslims' first allegiance is to Islam, not to the state they are citizens of.
As far as Islam and Europe, the closest Islam went to capture Europe was in 732 a.d.. Charles Martel emerged as an unexpected hero in the Battle of Tours. I personally believe God intervened here. Outnumbered against a very powerful enemy, Europe was at stake as CHarles Martel was the last stronghold of the christian World. He scored an unexpected victory.
I am surprised that there are no movies to glorify this man who had an gigantic influence on civilization.....
. . . I also read in a past issue of the National Catholic Register a statement made by an Italian Curial Cardinal urging Italians to make babies and to allow immigration only from Catholic countries. Italy has experienced an explosive growth in its Moslem population through immigration. His comments were vigorously condemned in the secular press. The fools!
That is interesting....do you have any links for further readings ? I have been searching for a good, detailed book on the Battle of Tours for a looooooooong time now, and could not find....any suggestions ? Thank you in advance.
Maybe "brother" Mel Gibson should entertain the thought of producing a movie about The Battle of Tours/Poitiers.
Speaking of Allah, the aforementioned book states that the word itself comes from the Aramaic.
A "Loyal Son" Protests Can a loyal Catholic ever criticize the Pope? Can it ever be his duty to voice such criticism publicly? These agonizing questions have been presenting themselves increasingly in recent years to a good number of Catholics who, like myself, do not consider themselves in any way dissenters. We accept all the authentic teachings of the Magisterium, including those since Vatican Council II, but feel deeply troubled by the policy and practice of the present pontiff in regard to non-Christian religions. As a priest who teaches theology at a pontifical university, I am dismayed at the January 24 inter-religious peace gathering in Assisi. It is well-known that before the first such gathering in 1986 (which played no small part in provoking the rupture between Archbishop Lefebvre and the Holy See in 1988), a number of cardinals privately warned John Paul II of the imprudence of such an innovation - utterly unheard of in 2,000 years of Church history. Their concern was shared by thousands of faithful priests, religious and Catholic laity. Perhaps if we had publicly voiced that concern, instead of remaining silent out of fear and human respect, His Holiness might have felt the need for greater restraint in the next millennium. Despite certain precautionary nuances against syncretism (the Assisi meetings were officially described as not being a case of "coming to pray together," but as "coming together to pray"), the practical effect in the minds of millions of observers worldwide can only have been to create or reinforce the impression that the Roman Catholic Church now endorses what Pope Pius XI described as "the view that all religions are more or less good and praiseworthy." But while vast numbers of Catholics now see nothing much wrong with that view, Pius XI declared that those who support and promote it are "lapsing gradually into naturalism and atheism" and therefore are "totally falling away from the religion revealed by God" (cf. Mortalium Animos, 1928). What other impression than a verdict of "more-or-less-good-and-praiseworthy" is left when the Roman pontiff invites Jewish, Islamic, pantheistic and polytheistic religious leaders to come and practice their respective forms of worship inside Catholic churches and religious houses, offering to each group space and facilities for that purpose? How does such an invitation escape the charge of formal cooperation in the objectively sinful practice of pagan worship? How will it in any way help to persuade those invited non-Christians, and their millions of followers, that Jesus Christ is the only Saviour? Is Assisi really justified by Vatican II's cautious recognition in Nostra Aetate that non-Christian religions "often reflect a ray of that truth which enlightens all men" or by its call for "prudent...discussion and collaboration with members of other religions"? Are such gatherings (not to mention such unheard-of gestures as the Pope's public kissing of the Koran on May 14, 1999) apt to give any practical reflection to the Catholic truth that the "belief" of non-Christians is not the theological virtue of faith - recently confirmed as definitive by John Paul II in Dominus Jesus? I offer these comments, not in a spirit of defiance, but as a loyal son of the Holy Father who prays for him daily, who assents to all his formal teachings as Vicar of Christ, but who also grieves for the scandal and confusion caused by radically innovative practices which do not seem to reflect those teachings. Fr. Brian W Harrison, O.S., S.T.D. Ponce, Puerto Rico
Dear Linus:No, I am not saying that most Roman Catholics view favorably the Pope's kissing the Koran and/or the prayer meetings with pagans at Assisi.It just that Catholics in general are not THAT alarmed about the Pope's showing respect for all religious beliefs. After all, this is the thrust of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, the "orther" hallmark of Pope John Paul II"s pontificate aside from ecumenical dialogue with other Chrisitans, most especially with the Orthodox!To me, at least, the interreligious gathering at Assisi for prayers for world peace is a non-issue and the event bodes well for religious tolerance. I like to think that the evangelization efforts of the Catholic Church in Muslim Indonesia and sub-Saharan Africa are in a great way aided by our adherence to the peaceful accommodation of local religious customs and beliefs, and not the coercive way, as practised in the olden days, of preaching the Gospels.I could be wrong but the success of the Catholic Church in traditionally Muslim countries speaks volumes.Amado
The man kissed a book that denies that Jesus is the Son of God and then does not publicly repent or ask for the forgiveness of his flock.Disgusting.
For example, during prayer with an African Animist on August 8, 1985, John Paul writes: "The prayer meeting in the sanctuary at Lake Togo was particularly striking. There I prayed for the first time with animists." In 1986, in New Delhi, India, John Paul stated: "Collaboration between all religions is necessary for the good of mankind. Today, as Hindus, Buddhists, Jansenists, and Christians, we unite to proclaim the truth about man" (La Croix, Feb 4, 1986). In his 1991 encyclical Centissimus Annus (60, 3), John Paul states: "I am convinced that the various religions, now and in the future, will have a preeminent role in preserving peace and in building a society worthy of man." In 62, 3 he writes: "...the Church will be faithful in making man's way her own." On April 19, 1998, during the homily of a con-celebrated Mass, in front of Indian women offering incense and flowers, John Paul said: "We would like to listen to what the spirit is saying to the Churches, so that they can proclaim Christ in the context of Hinduism, Buddhism, Shintoism and all those ways of thinking and living which were already rooted in Asia before the preaching of the Gospel arrived there" (L' Osservatore Romano, April 22, 1998). At the same meeting, John Paul stated: "Gandhi taught us that if all men and women, whatever the differences among them, embrace the truth, in the respect and dignity unique to every human being, a New World Order, a civilization of love can be attained." On January 21, 1995, in a meeting with Buddhists, John Paul stated: "This meeting signified togetherness. We are together; it is necessary to be together; not to be together is dangerous" (Man of the Millennium, p. 149). On November 17, 1999, in his general audience, John Paul stated: "It was important to reaffirm the lively desire of the Church for a fruitful dialogue among the believers of all religions" (The Catholic World Report, "Dialogue and evangelization," Jan. 2000, p. 9) (emphasis mine). "I love all religions...If people become better Hindus, better Moslems, better Buddhists by our acts of love, then there is something else growing there. They come closer and closer to God..." (Interview with Mother Teresa, 1989). In February 2000, John Paul stated: "May Saint John the Baptist protect Islam" (General Audience Address, May 5, 1999).
Pope John Paul II: "May Saint John the Baptist protect Islam."
"Whether we are Christians, Moslems or Jews, we are children of God and our efforts as peacemakers will be blessed and rewarded by the one God whom we share as common Creator." (Remarks by His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew "New Leadership and the Promise of Peace," October 15, 2000). http://www.goarch.org/en/ourfaith/articles/article8072.aspThere is also an upcoming "Interfaith Conference of the Three Monotheistic Religions" at the EP. http://www.oca.org/pages/news/news.asp?ID=563
Patriarch Bartholomew: "... upon all men and women of all ages, religions, races, creeds, and nations of our planet Earth peace and goodwill, beseeching our great and loving God that He grant to all of us the wisdom to truly see one another as we have been created, namely as brothers, sisters, and children of the Lord." (The Orthodox Observer July-August, 2001, p.9).
There is also an upcoming "Interfaith Conference of the Three Monotheistic Religions" at the EP. http://www.oca.org/pages/news/news.asp?ID=563
Do Zoroastrians count as monotheists are diotheists? They believe that Ahura Mazda will triumph but that evil is the creation of Angrha Mainyu, thus raising the status of their evil one to co-creator with their lord. It seems they are diotheists to me.
What, not the Zoroastrians??
I may be wrong, but I think Keble was being facetious.
Linus, Did you get those other "attributions" from the 101 heresies of John Paul II? If so, not really a credible source.
When I started this thread I was hoping someone would provide a good explanation of these things. I was also hoping someone could show me how RCs can be critical of the actions of a specific pope without rejecting the papacy itself as a divine institution.The responses have been as predictably defensive as they have been disappointing.What happens when the RCC is subjected to a really bad egg as pope, like another Alexander Borgia?Will everyone still be making excuses for him?

American Masters "The Day Carl Sandburg Died" For much of the 20th century, Carl Sandburg's name was synonymous with the American experience -- a spokesman on behalf of 'the people. " He became one of the most successful writers in the English language, using his unique life -- from impoverished beginnings on the prairie of Illinois to the halls of Congress to the Ed Sullivan Show -- in his free verse poetry. His was a classic American tale of success -- a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner, a biographer -- most notably of Abraham Lincoln -- a journalist, children's storyteller, folk song collector, novelist and autobiographer.

Annie Dumoulin tucked into her lunch at Maison Kammerzell, a classic Alsatian restaurant in the heart of her home town.
"Strasbourg is a French city," declared the deputy manager of the Strasbourg Tourist Board, while I sampled the choucroute and Riesling. "In fact, we think of it as the most French city of all."
While it's hard to deny the German influence that flows into everything Alsatian from across the Rhine River a few short kilometres away, we see her point.
Having visited villages with Germanic names such as Itterswiller, Gertwiller and Marlenheim, and having dined on fabulous smoked meats, sauerkraut (choucroute), Munster cheese and kougelhopf (brioche cake), we might have thought we had crossed the border into Germany. But everywhere we went, we were reassured -- in elegant French -- that we were still in France. Strasbourg is perhaps the most French of French cities because Strasbourgers have to think about their Frenchness all the time. Over the centuries, they have had to fight for it, too. Alsace has changed hands between France and Germany times throughout history.
These days, the setting is peaceful and collegial. A Metro train takes 20 minutes to cross the Rhine without a border stop to Offenburg, Germany. Thanks to being home to the European Parliament, visitors from Germany and beyond are finding a revitalized Strasbourg. A very French Strasbourg that is a fascinating cultural and culinary destination.
Where To Stay
Much of downtown Strasbourg is under renovation or has recently been re-done. The train station -- the second largest in France -- has been encased in a glass bubble that creates a large, sheltered lobby and waiting area. We stayed a block-and-a-half from the station at the Best Western Hotel Metropole Monopole, a beautifully restored hotel on the quiet rue Kuhn (011-33-3-8814-3914). With rates starting at about $150, including breakfast, it is a sleekly modern place to stay.
We also ventured into the Alsatian wine country for a night at the delightful -- and golden-hued -- Hotel Arnold in Itterswiller, 98 Route des Vins (001-33-3-8885-5058), 40 kilometres outside Strasbourg. The quaint country inn is surrounded by vineyards and offers meals in its winstub across the street. It's a restful spot and a fine launching point for wine touring. Rates here start at $120, which includes a substantial breakfast.
Where To Eat
Alsace is the home of choucroute, sausages, foie gras, cheeses, pain d'epices (gingerbread), smoked meat and fine pastries and breads from plum tarts to pretzels. It's the best of French and German foods. Add in great wines and beer and you have excellent food everywhere.
Winstubs are casual restaurants where families gather for hearty meals of smoked pork and choucroute, fresh fish and huge sausages. We had an excellent meal of game terrine, white asparagus, and slabs of local ham in the Hotel Arnold's winstub and enjoyed the smoked meats and choucroute at Winstub Le Saint-Sepulcre at 15 rue des Orfeves in downtown Strasbourg (011-33-3-8875-1845).
For more elegant Alsatian dining on duck breast with cherries or frog's legs with gnocchi, the 1427-built Maison Kammerzell at 16 Place de la Cathedrale (011-33-3-8832-4214) in the heart of the city fits the bill.
One other memorable Alsatian dish is the flammenkueche or flambe tart. These are thin pizza-like crusts covered with creamy sauce and toppings such as onions and bacon. They're perfect for lunch with a tall glass of beer.
Strasbourg is laced with canals and is a beautiful city to stroll or view from a canal tour. The downtown area stretches out from the huge Strasbourg Cathedral, the city's landmark, started in 1015 and completed in 1439. Near the downtown is La Petite France, a historic walking area built around Strasbourg's waterways. The home of millers and tanners in the 16th and 17th centuries, it now houses artists and artisans.
Offsetting the medieval stonework of the cathedral is contemporary architecture. Worth looking at both for its design and its content is the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. Opened in 1998, it spans art from the mid-19th century to today and includes works by Picasso and Monet.
We also had a fascinating walking tour of Obernai, tasted our way through the Arthur Metz winery in Marlenheim, and enjoyed strolling the streets of Alsatian villages.
Getting There
Strasbourg is a quick two-hour ride from the Frankfurt airport on Germany's high-speed ICE train (transfer to the Metro in Offenburg), making it a great first or last stop on your way into Europe. It's also just over two scenic hours from Paris on France's TGV. There's no need for a car while in Strasbourg, but for wine country touring it's best to have one.

A federal judge has sentenced disbarred Hendersonville lawyer Sam Neill to three years in prison for federal tax fraud.
ASHEVILLE — A judge sentenced disbarred Hendersonville lawyer Sam Neill Wednesday to three years in prison for federal tax fraud.
U.S. District Court Judge Martin Reidinger also ordered Neill to pay the government $492,665 in restitution for back taxes and to complete a year of supervised release at the end of his sentence.
Neill's sentence will run consecutively with any time ordered during his sentencing this morning on state charges of embezzlement.
Neill pleaded guilty to one count of federal tax fraud in a plea deal with attorneys last April. Prosecutors say he "understated" his income for 2008 and 2009 by $1.5 million — an amount they say ties directly to his state charges.
On Sept. 17, Neill pleaded guilty to five state counts of felony embezzlement in Henderson County Superior Court. Pending his efforts with restitution payments, Neill faces up to 84 years in prison for stealing nearly $2.5 million from estates and trusts under his care.
"Mr. Neill will serve with grace and understanding... that he can start his life again," his lawyer, Joseph B. Cheshire, told the court, asking the judge to balance his decision with the life of service Neill has lived. He spent 10 years of his life working 20 hours a week helping and representing the indigent, he told the judge.
But, he admitted, Neill took money that wasn't entitled to him "against what was taught to him by his church and his profession."
Neill's voice quivered as he fought back tears while reading a prepared statement to the judge.
"I wish to apologize to this court, to my victims, to my family and to my profession," he said, adding that he has "sincere regrets" for his actions.
"My life has already been destroyed because I've lost my profession, my wealth and my reputation," Neill said.
He was stripped of his license to practice law in 2011 after a career of 36 years. A Democrat, he also ran for Congress in 2000 and 2002, but lost in each attempt to Republican Charles Taylor.
Reidinger said he received and reviewed a "considerable stack of letters" written on Neill's behalf. He read an excerpt of a letter from Neill's son: "I believe my aging father had taken on more responsibility than he could handle and he eventually cracked..."
"I believe that hits the nail on the head," Reidinger said. "That explains it, but it does not excuse it."
Neill's family watched in silence as the judge ordered Neill to be "committed to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons for a term of 36 months."
"I have found this to be a particularly difficult case," Reidinger said, "and not because the person who stands before me is a lawyer... here, I have a case of someone who has done a lot for the community."
But, he added, Neill could not be held to a "separate set of standards." The "seriousness here," he said, is the "damage to justice."
The judge told Neill that people — and especially his clients — trusted him, "and that (trust) was breached."
He recommended that Neill, whom he says has a "history of mental health issues," be accepted into a mental health treatment program during his incarceration. He added that he will also recommend Neill be "placed at a facility that addresses his mental health and physical health needs" and that is near his family.
"Mr. Neill, this is a sad day for this court... there isn't anything I can say that will make it any better," Reidinger told him after sentencing.
Neill was allowed to remain free on bond until federal marshals contact him to surrender.
"I'm very let down with what he did with hospice," said Vicki Stonecypher, a representative of a local charitable organization that lost money because of Neill's embezzlement. "Hospice is just such a good organization. I just think it's very sad (that) a lot of sick people and a lot of families of sick people have to suffer because of him."
The Community Foundation of Henderson County, along with Four Seasons, a local hospice organization, lost a total of $884,000 that was intended for the charities from the Barry E. Clemo trust fund.
Neill was accused of taking $55,000 in 2000 and 2001 from the Harold R. Tallmadge Trust and has paid that off through a surety bond that guaranteed his legal work. He was also accused of taking $247,682 from the Edna A. Davis revocable living trust fund in 2010 and has promised to repay that amount.
Neill promised to repay the Irene F. Meinke estate $442,000 after taking from the fund in 2008.
Prosecutors say he embezzled $850,000 in 2008 from the Ruth D. Danis estate.
