Friday, August 17th, 2007 — An appeals court judge was indicted on charges of scamming $440,000 from insurers by claiming he suffered debilitating injuries in a car crash, even while he golfed, skated and went scuba diving, federal prosecutors said. In announcing the indictment Wednesday against Pennsylvania Superior Court Judge Michael Thomas Joyce, prosecutors said he claimed the fender-bender left him in constant pain and unable to exercise, but then he played golf, went inline skating and received his pilot’s license.
