Pastor faces civil suit, criminal charges


MILFORD -- The Rev. Robert Genevicz appearance in Bridgeport's Golden Hill Street courthouse took about a minute Monday.

There, Genevicz, known as "Pastor Bob" to his Stratford Baptist Church congregation, was told his felony case stemming from the alleged theft of $173,000 from an elderly parishioner was being transferred to the Main Street courthouse for an April 22 appearance.

Genevicz's April 14 appearance in Milford might take much longer. That's when Joseph Mager, Jr., the lawyer and conservator for Patricia A. Stosak, the elderly parishioner, will seek to freeze $500,000 of Genevicz's assets.

Mager is seeking a pre-judgment remedy as a result of a civil suit he filed March 11 against Genevicz. The suit alleges that Genevicz, while serving as Stosak's conservator, stole $173,729 from her. If the remedy is granted, the pastor will be unable to spend or transfer those assets.
