This case was originally filed in Ohio District Court, and later
transferred to Virginia Eastern District.
A description of the case docket is available online, although most of
the actual docket materials themselves do not appear to be available
online.
The information that IS available is informative, although a bit
cryptic at times. For instance, here's the summary of the sentencing
report:
=====
Sentencing held on 5/27/2005 held before Judge Claude M. Hilton as to
James Woodruff: (Court Reporter: Linnell) US appeared through: Robert
Wiechering and Robert Erickson. Dft appeared w/counsel Drew Hutcheson.
Dft's obj. to PSIR heard and court finds the amount of loss is
properly calculated, dft is entitled to credit for acceptance of
responsibility and no role in the offense enhancement should be given.

committed to custody of US Atty General to serve a term of 40 mos. w/3

Restitution Judgment filed in open court) Cond. of SR: Pay the

=====
From my read of the docket materials (with a limited understanding of
the legalese), Woodruff was found guilty of wire fraud, sentenced to
40 months -- most or all of which was under supervised release (SR) --
and must pay restitution of over half a million dollars, with a
minimum payment of at least $250 per month.
Beyond this level of detail though, you would probably need to visit
the court to access the paper records directly.
Should I post more of the docket information as an answer to your
question? If so, please be aware that the information is mostly as
above, and is not an actual trial transcript.
Let me know what you think,
