Lawrence Korda was smoking marijuana in a Florida park


HOLLYWOOD, Fla. - A judge who had a secondary role in the recent Anna Nicole Smith proceedings was charged with smoking marijuana in a city park, police said Monday.

Lawrence Korda was smoking marijuana while sitting under a tree Sunday, police said. Three officers who were training there saw Korda and field-tested the cigarette, said Capt. Tony Rode, a police spokesman.

The judge was not arrested. He was given a misdemeanor citation to appear in court.

??Judge Korda was not given special treatment because of his status as a circuit court judge,? Rode said. ??He was provided with a notice to appear. That??s exactly what 99 percent of other offenders would have been given for this type of offense.?

A message left by The Associated Press at the judge??s chambers after hours Monday was not immediately returned.
