Judge Reduces Bail in Springs Manslaughter Case

In the arraignment Friday of Marc T. Dern, the Springs man accused of unintentionally killing a close friend, Kevin Somers of Amagansett, during a fight on Feb. 5, New York State Supreme Court Justice John B. Collins reduced Mr. Dern's bail to $150,000 cash or $1.5 million bond or partially secured bond — which, either way, would require a payment of $150,000.
