JoP candidate publishes apology
Monday, Oct. 23, 2000 | 5:01 a.m.
The state Committee on Judicial Ethics and Elections Practices listed the sanction against Finnegan in his race for Tahoe Township Justice with Lake Tahoe attorney Richard Glasson.
Glasson complained that Finnegan misrepresented him in a letter sent to 180 absentee voters that said Glasson's experience is only in civil law. Glasson also complained that Finnegan told people Glasson is a Democrat. The job is a nonpartisan office.
Finnegan conceded that the statement about Glasson's legal experience was a misstatement but claimed he didn't know Glasson had experience with criminal law.
Finnegan was told to publish an apology stating he was wrong. The apology also must be mailed to the original recipients of the letter.
