Michael Rigas has been sentenced to 10 months' home confinement in
connection with his role in the case against Adelphia Communications.
The 51-year-old son of Adelphia founder John Rigas pleaded guilty to a
charge of making a false entry in a company record, eliminating the need for
his retrial on securities fraud and bank fraud charges.
John Rigas and another son, Timothy, were sentenced after being convicted of
hiding more than 2 billion dollars in company debt.
They were sentenced to prison but are both free pending appeal.
