A Greenwich man is accused of defrauding his mother-in-law of over $300,000 during a two-year period.
Authorities said Anthony Green, of 181 Strickland Road, offered to help his mother-in-law with her finances after her husband passed away in 2010, but instead of helping her, he helped himself to $315,000 of her money.
It is alleged that 36-year-old Green, who owns T. Green Carting in Cos Cob, wrote checks from his mother-in-law’s line of credit to either his wife or his business.
Green, who was charged with first-degree larceny and six counts of second-degree forgery, was released from custody after posting $2,500 bond.
He is due back in state Superior Court in Stamford on April 12.
Court records show T. Green Carting filed Chapter 11 on April 15, 2012.
