Atwood Recycling Partners File Suit

July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.

By Staff Report-

Former partners in the Atwood tire recycling project have filed suit claiming ownership of about $25,000 in processed rubber at the G&M tire facility in Atwood.

A hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. today in Kosciusko Circuit Court to determine whether the property should be turned over to the plaintiffs, Atwood Recyclers Inc.

The suit was filed Sept. 26, one day after plaintiffs claim they saw the defendents - Garry Baker and Robert Grindle - loading processed rubber into a semi trailer.

On Sept. 26, the court ordered the property seized and scheduled a hearing for today to resolve the dispute.

In court papers, the plaintiffs claim they have asked for the property to be turned over to them and express concern that Baker and Grindle may attempt to "conceal, remove or dispose" of the processed rubber.

Atwood Recyclers earlier this year broke off cooperative efforts with Baker to recycle millions of tires at the dump under a state plan. As a result of the broken deal, the state has stepped in and is preparing an emergency cleanup. [[In-content Ad]]
