A Canandaigua man will serve a 90-day intermittent sentence in jail and five years on probation for claiming fraudulent unemployment benefits in Genesee County.
He faces similar charges in Ontario County.
Nicholas A. Caliese must repay the county $12,829.50.
Caliese entered a guilty plea to grand larceny, 3rd, in Genesee County Court on July 6.
His sentence was based on a plea deal struck over the summer.
Currently, Caliese is working two jobs, one is full-time, and going to school.
"A probation sentence is appropriate, giving him the opportunity to continue forward with the positive steps that he’s just made recently," said Billy Tedford, his attorney.
