SPARTA, N.J.
A former municipal court judge in Morris County who lost that job after admitting to drunken driving has been convicted of another DWI charge.
George R. Korpita received a suspended 45-day jail term after being found guilty Thursday in Sparta Township Municipal Court. He also must continue to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings six days a week for two years _ the time his driver's license will be revoked _ and will be jailed if he misses meetings.
The conviction stemmed from Korpita's arrest in February 2008.
He had served as a judge for Dover, Rockaway Borough and Victory Gardens before stepping down in December 2007. That came after he admitted driving drunk in Roxbury a few weeks earlier and threatening the police officers who arrested him.
