The taxpayer’s suit lives on despite the dismissal of our attorney Craig Hunter. You can read about it here in the first spare story in the Trib’s online edition. I’ve been too busy to read the online comments on Red Plan stories for a month now let alone contribute to them. I made an exception in this case when I was stopped cold by the contemptible lie that someone calling itself “Paul G” wrote:
Of course, I had to respond:
Paul G began his comment thusly,
“Well, isn’t this interesting! So, unless Judge Hylden is corrupt (as previously suggested by Welty)”
If this is Paul Goosens writing this I just want other readers to know that this is a lie. Paul you’ve often relied on insinuation to make your points but this crosses a serious line. I’ve suggested only that Judge Hylden is subject to elections, In his case that’s about five years off so little of this lawsuit is likely to attach to him at that late date.
About your insinuation I have only one other comment. Well, isn’t this interesting!
Harry Welty
PS. I don’t know who the fellow from Rush City is but his words and sentiment are golden.
Mr. Hunter has labored long and hard over this case for a very modest compensation. He’s done so brilliantly fending off several big city law firms for better than two months. His case is solid and its still yet to be decided in court. He is now facing possible legal fines for his honest mistake. He told me that if my fellow plaintiffs wanted a refund he would happily honor our request.
I wonder if the School District’s quarter-million dollar attorneys would make such an offer?
