CANTON â In an almost deserted St. Lawrence County courtroom Friday, it was revealed that two more Ogdensburg firefighters have opted to retire and one is under âdisciplinary reviewâ as the city and its fire union took their battle over minimum manning a step further in state Supreme Court. No decision on the matter was issued from the bench Friday by Judge Mary M. Farley, but an âexpeditedâ written decision was promised. The courtroom Friday was nearly empty. The lawyers werenât at their respective tables, preparing to defend their positions, and the judge was not seated at her bench. Instead, the judge was in her chambers, and the lawyers called in from other locations. In the space in front of the bench, a flatscreen TV displaying a video conference call was mounted on a stand, which stood looming over the courtroom â all thanks to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
