Judge Orders Rubber Returned To Atwood Recyclers

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

By Staff Report-

A judge has ordered that a bunch of processed tires be turned over to Atwood Recyclers Inc.

The recycled product - about three truck loads - was left behind at the Atwood tire dump after the company broke off plans to recycle tires with tire dump owner Garry Baker.

Atwood Recyclers filed suit Sept. 26 claiming Baker and another defendant, Robert Grindle, were attempting to move the by-products. A temporary injunction was filed in Kosciusko Circuit Court.

On Thursday, Circuit Court Judge Rex Reed ordered the property turned over to Atwood recyclers, which placed an approximate value of $25,000 on the tires.

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]]
