Kim Chatman during yet ANOTHER lawsuit filing against Palin.
Posted on 07/21/2009 5:02:32 PM PDT by TitansAFC
Outgoing Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin may have violated state ethics laws by letting supporters set up a legal defense fund to help her battle ethics complaints, a preliminary report on the issue has found. Sarah Palin's attorney says the report is not final, and he is preparing more information for the investigator. An investigator hired by the state personnel board recommended Palin -- who gives up her office on Sunday -- refuse money from the defense fund and ask the state to pay legal fees for ethics complaints that have been dismissed. Palin attorney Thomas Van Flein said the report is not final, however, and he is preparing "supplemental information" for the investigator. Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate in 2008, cited the cost of battling ethics complaints from her critics as one of the reasons she is giving up her office about two-thirds of the way through her term. Most complaints have been dismissed, though one led to her paying back taxes on state per diem funds, and she agreed to repay about $8,100 in travel expenses for her children in another case.

We have heard the name of Kim Chatman before. She joined a frivolous lawsuit with publicity-seeker Gregory Charles Royal -- the same individual who was making claims during the 2008 campaign that a married Sarah Palin, pregnant at the time, wouldn't have sex him just because he was African-American:

More Kim Chatman...
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on ... but Sarah will have the last laugh.
I’ve read this story from a number of diff’t sources and it still makes no sense.
Remember the name:
Kim Chatman
She has been a party to most of the junk lawsuits against Palin.
Just wait ... after she leaves office, they’ll find reasons for civil suits.
I don’t have the pic, but I will say the line: “Oh geez, not this s#*t again!”
Why doesn’t someone start up a bunch of ethics violations against Reid, Pelosi etc. If Palin had manipulated the system like Pelosi did for her tuna comapny, she’d be toast.
Despite Thomas Daniel's Dem ties to Obama, he is a partner in a large national firm. I would be surprised if he leaked this. He has investigated other Palin ethics charges that were dismissed without them being leaked.
That leaves the filer, Kim Chatman. She's got to be the leaker. She's been quoted in the articles. A copy of this document is being passed around the Alaska moonbat websites like Mudflats.
“An investigator hired by the state personnel board recommended Palin ...refuse money from the defense fund and ask the state to pay legal fees for ethics complaints that have been dismissed.” ?!?
Why doesn’t he ask Alaskans if they want to foot the bill for defending this BS?
Remind me again, HOW MUCH did Barack Obama agree to repay so that his wife and kids could fly separately from him on the BACK-UP 747 when they took their European vacation???????
Another POS story. It’s alright for the dims to steal you blind; but it’s not alright for this woman to defend herself against false accusations.
Just wait until she is POTUS.
She has already been caught in a couple of leaks...
So why is no prosecutor feeling the need to “have to enforce the law, whether they like it or not” when it comes to Kim Chatman?
This is all such a shame, that the people of Alaska will have to pay the costs of this PDS vendetta that targets the finances of the Gvernor’s family.
Is there any way this defense fund (or another set up aftyer she resigns) can be used for her legal fees after she resigns from office? Many private citizens receive voluntary funds from other citizens to handle expenses which the public wants to help them with. I know I would donate.
Dunno, but I did notice that Van Flein said in his statement that authorities would be notified about this unauthorized disclosure.
If she has to give back the money the defense fund made, that’s fine, we will all take that money and put it into her SarahPac. I am sick and tired to see what this country has become. And I thought Jimmy Carter was bad, he was a saint compared to this nut we have in the White House. He is destroying this country piece by piece and he is targeting ANYONE who wants to stand up and fight for this country. I knew this crap was coming from the top, Obama probably gets briefed everyday on what to do next to bring down Sarah Palin, think that’s crazy, it’s not, straight out of Alinsky’s handbook, remember the poll yesterday showing Sarah within SIX of Obama, I bet you the Dems have a poll showing she is closer then that or maybe even ahead of him. That is why they are doing this
