<p>WILKES-BARRE &#8212; Leo A. Glodzik III won&#8217;t report to federal prison Monday and will remain a free man for at least another month after a recent health screening revealed two masses on his body.</p><p>Glodzik, 45, had been expected to report to Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix in New Jersey to begin serving a 30-month sentence on tax and firearms charges, but a motion filed Friday by Glodzik&#8217;s attorney raised concerns over the former city tower&#8217;s fitness.</p><p>Though Glodzik is in otherwise good health, &#8220;tender&#8221; masses discovered on his forearm and abdomen should be removed and sent to a lab to rule out malignancies, Dr. George F. Speace, of Wilkes-Barre, wrote in an Oct. 21 letter to attorney Joseph F. Sklarosky Sr.</p><p>Speace, of Plastic &amp; Reconstructive Surgeons on Route 315, noted biopsies should be performed within the next two weeks.</p><p>&#8220;Should these prove to be malignancies, further treatment may be indicated,&#8221; Speace says in the letter. Speace and Sklarosky could not be reached for comment Sunday.</p><p>U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo granted the motion and extended Glodzik&#8217;s surrender date to Nov. 28.</p><p>Glodzik, of Wilkes-Barre, entered the Oct. 24 reporting date <a href="https://www.timesleader.com/news/local/588786/leo-a-glodzik-iii-gets-30-months-in-federal-prison" target="_blank">during sentencing last month</a> on charges of mail fraud, filing a false tax return and being a felon in possession of a firearm. <a href="https://www.timesleader.com/news/535907/leo-a-glodzik-iii-pleads-guilty-to-charges-of-mail-fraud-filing-false-income-tax-return" target="_blank">In exchange for his guilty plea in April</a>, prosecutors dismissed charges against him in the Wilkes-Barre Employees Federal Credit Union corruption case.</p><style>
