Robert Gill Jr. claimed he appealed his sentence and was given a court date for January 8, 2018 in a lawsuit filed on October 29, 2018. He claimed he won his appeal. “Hamilton County and Silverdale said my out-date was February 12, 2018,” the complaint read. “My out-date was changed to March 4, 2018, which puts me at 5 months day for day not including any good time I had been receiving.” He is asking to be reimbursed for every day he served over his time.
