RPOF: We didn't offer Jim Greer 'hush money' | Florida politics blog: The Buzz | Tampa Bay Times
The Republican Party of Florida has not attempted to settle a civil suit filed against them by former GOP chairman Jim Greer, according to a lawyer for the party.

"The Republican Party of Florida has never made an offer to pay Jim Greer any money to settle his lawsuit, not one dollar not one red cent,'' said Stephen Dobson, the Tallahassee lawyer who represents the party.

This could spill out all over :ack-1: :smoke:
There is a bit of bad news for some of the witnesses slated to testify at the trial of former Republican Party of Florida Chairman Jim Greer.

A four-page report that apparently includes some embarrassing accusations against witnesses is a public record, says Orlando Circuit Judge Marc L. Lubet in an order released Monday.

The judge also refused to limit the records that Greer can subpoena from the state party saying the records are likely to be relevant and favorable to his defense. Greer will have to pay reasonable costs for the documents.

Why doesn't the Fla Repub Party just pay him off like Republicans usually do in instances like this :dunno: Greer has the goods on some other Repubs in Fla given he was the Chairman ;)

better get Lahkoda in here to bail this thread out...will be twice the bore:lol:
 
you two are sooo predictable. I'd be a little concerned if a state party chairman was about to spill the beans over internal party workings that maybe, how shall I say?, unsavory ;)
 
I can't wait:

Greer faces trial in November on federal charges of money laundering and grand theft in connection with money he obtained from his secret involvement in a company that handled fundraising for the party in 2009.

Orlando attorney Richard E. Hornsby asked the court to seal the record to avoid violating the privacy of “interested persons’’ who were not charged. He would not identify the client who hired him.

During a hearing earlier this month the judge read a list of potential witnesses who might be harmed by the report, including Brian Ballard, a lobbyist and GOP fundraiser; former GOP executive director Delmar Johnson; former finance chairman Harry Sargeant; and Dane Eagle, a House candidate and former aide to Gov. Charlie Crist.

There is plenty of media attention on this scandal, the vulture isn't part of it, however, except to the extent he isn't popular with some of the party leadership. Infighting all around for the last 4-8 years, but no impact on elections, thus far.
 
there's people here from Fla who care about their party infighting :eusa_whistle:

Read the link within your link.

It has more details.

Greer wanted severance pay after getting caught being a skeeze:
Florida Republican Party says it didn't offer Jim Greer 'hush money' - Tampa Bay Times

Greer is accused of diverting about $200,000 in party money to Victory Strategies, a company he and Delmar Johnson, former executive director of the party, formed in 2009 to handle fundraising. Greer resigned under pressure in early 2010 and Johnson has since been granted immunity from prosecution in return for his testimony against Greer.
The settlement discussions occurred in connection with a civil suit Greer filed against the party last year seeking to force it to honor a 2010 severance agreement to pay him $124,000.
