Tim Durham's attorney John Tompkins says he's seeking leniency from a federal court judge.

Listen:

Durham and partners James Cochran and Rick Snow face a sentencing hearing Friday in U.S. District Court. Durham faces 225 years on numerous wire and securities fraud charges. The charges are related to the collapse of Fair Finance Co. Back in June, a jury found Durham and partners guilty of bilking 5000 Ohio investors out of $200 million.

Tompkins says he's seeking a five-year sentence for his client. Sentencing arguments begin Friday at 9 am and wrap at Noon. Durham will be sentenced at 1 pm, Cochran will be sentenced at 2:30pm and Snow will be sentenced at 3:30 pm.
