Former Rep. Vaughn Sues Ethics Commision

Posted on March 19, 2009 at 12:09 am

You don’t see that everyday:

The lawsuit refers to a complaint Vaughn filed with the Tennessee Ethics Commission, accusing House Republican Caucus Chairman Glen Casada of Franklin and House Majority Leader Jason Mumpower of Bristol of improper conduct during the election by misleading voters through Web sites under Vaughn’s name.

The commission dismissed the complaint in January. In the lawsuit, Vaughn accuses the commission of not having the proper number of members to make a decision on the complaint, and calls for another review.

“I’m not really against the commission; all I’m asking them for is an investigation of the issues that I brought before them,” Vaughn said.
