Wow sounds like his last law suit at his other Township job before giung to Westfield guess he's wants more money instead of a pension lol good luck not
The Fact of The Matter has confirmed that the plaintiff was not involved in any previous lawsuit in any other township. Would you be referring to the defendant Greg O’Neil?
No its Chris he was saying he was given a cash settlement from his previous job hes a nut job didn't want to work thought every job was dangerous and started to refuse jobs which is insubordination but Greg never wrote him up so I say best of luck cause its all on file with Greg and the Union
If what you say is true and it’s all on file with the union, isn’t the union supposed to back its members? Isn’t the plaintiff a union member? If so, then the union should be backing him.
Hmmm i do remember chris bragging about a payout from his prior job & bragging to a few other dpw workers about how he would sell all his belongings, get a boat & live on it for the rest of his life
No, the Plaintiff does not want to work for a living. He wants a HUGE PAYOFF TO RETIRE. DOES HE THINK HE'S THE ONLY EMPLOYEE WITH HEALTH ISSUES? DO YOUR FUCKING JOB LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, GROW UP. of course there is always WELFARE WHEN YOU LOOSE THIS. GARBAGE = GARBAGE
Yes I know all the matters involved and the TRUTH. enough said,every where he goes he creates his own misery town to town, Department to department. Just do your job your given ( which was many) bc he always has a issue No matter where he's placed, then he gets another placement (to accommodate), and another issue he comes up with. There are only so many times you can tell your boss "NO I'M NOT DOING THAT". Most people just look for another job if your not happy.....why do that if you can get a chunk of change by sueing.
Clearly, you have not read through the lawsuit point by point.
Your knowledge of “all the matters involved and the TRUTH” will be welcome by the town when you are deposed.
May I remind you that unlike the Stephanie Gironda (Wilentz) interviews of DPW employees during her investigation of alleged overtime theft, Lawsuit depositions require “sworn testimony” where you raise your hand and swear to tell the truth, the whole truth......” just like taking the witness stand in court.
While DPW employees were able to lie during the Gironda interviews as she has no prosecutorial power of filing perjury charges, those that are subpoenaed to a deposition won’t be able to do so during depositions and in court, if this goes to trial.
The lies during the Gironda interviews are not sworn testimony.
Well I'm pretty sure that won't ever happen. Once again, the entire format is ridiculous. I'm up to date on your big words "Deposed"... "Swear to tell the truth"....what it boils down to is " What you can prove"...no hear say, no collaborating,. First mistake was putting this on this site and thinking that it's going to create fear or kaos. It didn't work the first time.
If “deposed” is a big word for you, well then ok. It’s a common word used in litigation. “Litigation“ is a big word for lawsuit. Are you up to date on that word?
I’m very familiar on the rules of evidence and what is necessary to prove one’s claim.
Putting this on my blog was not intended to instill “fear or kaos” as you have suggested. The purpose is for transparency. That’s another big word for “out in the open.”
I’m not sure how you know what I’m thinking, unless you have a crystal ball. If you do have one, could you look into it and tell me how many of the DPW employees interviewed by Stephanie Gironda told the truth? How many lied? How many will tell the truth when under oath?
Don’t you worry about what I, or anyone else, can prove. What it will come down to is whether or not DPW employees will lie or tell the truth when under oath.
Keep me posted on that “fear and kaos” thing you were referring to.
All up to date I can assure you. Everyone is aware that the same person who chose to try and RAT out his fellow workers is the same one filing this law suit. No crystal ball...never said I had one, nor did I ever say I know what your thinking....and that's how things get started. And yes I am very well versed on "Litigation, and TY I will and am having a great day.
Look at your first comment. You said “First mistake was putting it on this site and thinking that it’s going to create fear or kaos.” So yes, you did try to say you knew what i was thinking. I sure hope you’re not deposed. You can’t remember what you said from a few hours ago even with it written above.
This stuff falls directly under the watch of Jim Gildea. This man's job is to oversee this kind of nonsense. He should be named also in the lawsuit. It's his job to protect the tax payers of Westfield and he has clearly failed. If we think that this type of activity has no result on our taxes, think again...Terrible job by all involved in this thing. I can't wait to know what the settlement amount turns out to be. Shelley will be raising the taxes again!
Settlements, if awarded, can be a combination of payment from the town and the JIF (Joint Insurance Fund) I believe this was the case in the Rolnick case against the Town of Westfield several years ago that settled for $1.1 million. In no way am I suggesting that amount, or any amount will be awarded in this case. That amount is merely recognized as an example of a settlement payment made by separate entities.
The lawsuit indicates that “John Does” #1 through #10 are listed as defendants.
This is common for a lawsuit that could potentially identify others during the course of discovery and depositions, to be added as defendants.
I would expect Westfield Town Administrator Jim Gildea to be added to the lawsuit based on the severity of the claims made and his involvement as the person that Defendant Greg O’Neil answers to.
With approximately 40 or more workers employed at the DPW, anyone can be added as a “defendant” should the discovery and deposition process reveal their involvement in claims made by the plaintiff.
Now, Now, lets go easy on the guy. Anonymous above, has already indicated he has concern about big words. While the person might be “up to date” on big words as indicated, he might have a problem with “kaos” which anyone that is up to date knows, is spelled chaos. LOL
Do you have to take a literacy test to become dpw employee? Based on some of the anonymous comments here, that are most likely a dpw employee, the test must be equivalent to 5th grade competency.
Wah wah wah he wants a HUGE pay day so he can sit on his lazy ass,how about Ll the other dpw guys who worked during the entire "pandemic" & all the other guys who have worked with injuries, hmmm yeah he only cares about himself
There’s no doubt that “dpw guys worked during the entire pandemic, and worked with injuries.” The question will be, how many of the guys that worked during the pandemic, have a medical condition that required PPE recommended by a doctor to perform their assigned duty? How many of the other guys that have ever worked with injuries were accommodated with a job that allowed them to continue working through the injury? Don’t confuse “injury” with “medical condition” during a pandemic where that medical condition puts a person at greater risk of death should they contract the coronavirus.

ReplyDeleteNot sure if you read through the entire lawsuit but if you did, you’d see that it contains a lot more than health issues and doing a job.
DeleteHes a cry baby he wants a big law suit so he can sit on his ass and live off tax paying citizens money
DeleteHow many hours of overtime did you steal from the tax paying citizens?

Thank you for the reply. I was not aware of that.
Delete"Kaos" sounds like a West Coast Rap "artist" name. Snoop Dogg featuring Kaos and Puffy on his new album dropping next year!

DeleteKAOS was the evil organization led by Sigfried that battled CONTROL and Maxwell Smart!
DeleteIs this about Justice or money?
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion it’s about accountability.
