FARMINGTON, N.M. (AP) - A Farmington jury has convicted a man for extorting money from a woman who secured a bail bond through his company.

The Daily Times of Farmington reports (https://bit.ly/2lR4gB8 ) that Daniel Goldberg Sr. was convicted on Friday of fourth-degree felony fraud and petty misdemeanor fraud. He was charged with fraud after collecting two payments from a woman who did not own money on her bond from a 2014 arrest.

Goldberg’s attorney said he disagreed with the verdict. He said he plans to file a motion for a mistrial because the court allowed a witness to testify who was not qualified to do so.

A sentencing date has not been set.
