Trading accusations back and forth.

Many of you are aware that the Gov. was subpoenaed to testify before the Personnel Board investigating the propriety of Mke Duncan's firing as Deputy Inspector General of the Transportation Cabinet. The Gov.'s Counsel, Jim Decker, took issue with it chastising Duncan's Lawyer, Thomas Clay, for first alerting the news media before attempting to serve the Gov. . The Gov.'s personal Lawyer, Steve Pitt, called the subpeona a "stunt" and the Courier-Journal's editorial of December 13th, Time for the whole truth, "another gratuitous and unnecessary slap at the Commonwealth's chief executive". Now Mike Duncan's Lawyer has replied arguing that the Gov. needs to be deposed. Thomas Clay, also pretty much implies that all the participants, excepting his client, Mike Duncan, and Dan Druen, the Fletcher ex aide who was charged by the Personnel Board with violating the merit system laws, lied -- even under oath!
Stay tuned.
