NEW CITY – Egon Linzenberg of Hillburn is going to serve one to three years in state prison for stealing the house he shared with his estranged and long time common law wife and one of their three sons.

Linzenberg forged several documents, illegally and secretly removing his wife’s name from the deed to the home, leaving title to the shared house in only his name.

He then fraudulently refinanced the house, again using forged documents, and took and sent all of the proceeds from the refinance.

The house, at 82 Regina Road in Monsey, is currently in foreclosure.

The forged documents included a power of attorney and several real estate and mortgage documents.

Linzenberg must also pay $226,000 in restitution; he has already paid back $200,000, which was turned over to the victim.

He had been convicted last January of grand larceny in the second degree, two counts of criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree and four counts of forgery in the second degree. The jury trial lasted eight days.
