After reading that article, if I were you, I would not put anything about this situation in writing.

I agree.

With continuing litigation, the less said the better.

This guy is a putz. His counsel (though very little, I have too much respect for the attorneys I know to insult them by including this guy) noted that Oliphant wasn't given the opportunity to respond and defend himself.

Seems to me, his refusal to appear in front of the board to defend himself is what started this. From the story, it seems to me that this idiot had no intention of doing anything else, but bring action against whatever association doesn't treat him differently than the rest of the association. Wait a minute, wouldn't THAT be discrimination?

Stay away from this guy, he is trouble no matter what the game or association may be.
