My response was to the above post. So if you were right - that the towns only defense against the Ryan suit was that of the validity and enforceable nature of his contract - which the court ruled on, then the case has been won by Ryan and he would have been ordered paid. My post suggested only that such appears to not be the case and Ryan still has the burden of proof in court that he was wronged by the town and the value of that. It is not over until the Cheswold fat lady sings.
I enjoyed this exchange. Do it some more.

| You are right. He now has the right to present his case in Court to a judge who already ruled he had a valid and enforceable contract and was fired illegally. What was it Ryan didn't get??????????????????????????? You fool.

An article in today's Dover Post indicated that Mr. Ryan's attorney Mr. Neuberger had submitted their "fianl offer" of settlement for $350,000 to the town council In a remark attributed to Mr. Ryan's other attorney, Mr. LaRossa, he expects that a jury trial would produce an award of some $1,500,000. Certainly makes one wonder why a $350k settlement offer would be submitted ahead of a $1.5 Million jury award. I will have to buy a ticket to this trial.

| It was reported that the former mayor defied the advice of the town's attorney by refusing to destroy a taped record of the executive session preceding Ryan's firing. Where on the harm scale would that fall?

That's a jerky comment. Hell, I voted for Bush and look what happen..ed to us. What's your point - other than the obvious. Just because I voted for them didn'yt give them permission to hurt the town by going against what their attorney told them to do.
Just look what we have now. WORSE han the p;revious crowd. Watch how they screw up the town.

Please explain exactly what one has to do with the other?
I'm pissed that this town allowed this to happen and I am going to have to help pay for those idiots who fired him. I also realize ryan is going to win big. What problem do you have understanding that???????

Gordo has a real dilemma --- always heretofore an ardent Ryan fan, supporter, and defender, now seemingly concerned about how the taxpayers will be affected by the outcome of this lawsuit. One of those issues where one can't have it both ways!

Either you are a person running scared or you don't give a damn about us taxpayers who will have to foot this bill. I'm not even going to acknowledge your trival n onsense anymore.
Subject is closed with me. I know how this case is going to end - you will just nhave to wait and see.

It is also a widely recognized fact that Mr. Ryan's lawyer previous attempts to bring a settlement in the case were rejected out of hand by the town council. That's the real reason the matter may go to trial.

| Well BR, it looks as if the Great gordo has real inside info on what it is going on. Boy i hope if I have a case in the courts, all my inside info doesn't get out. Me thinks there is a big leak somewhere, unless coming from the source. Who are his lawyers, i want to make sure i don't get them, seems to many leaky pots for me. But that is just my opinion.

Gordo, does your response mean that Ryan has won his case against the town then? Did the judge that ruled the contract to be valid also order the town to pay Ryan? Then the supreme court uphold that ruling?
NO? Then maybe that was not the only defense available and not the end of the case. I am not a lawyer but I presume that there is some other defense available or the case would have ended wouldn't it? Mr. Ryan would have been ordered paid off and it would be over.

| gordo that may be true. I am hoping that judges are above that kind of feeling and simply look at the facts and the law in having a trial. Either this case and all others - facts and law.

| Well, my friend, if you think when you appeal a judges decision and lose that appeal then you have to go to court with that same judge who was pissed because you tried to go over his head and who already made an opinion Ryan's contract was valid then that can be safely called cleaning someone's clock, kicked in the butt or whatever.

| Gordo I found it - thanks. IUt donesn't say much to me except the supreme court refused to hear an appeal from a ruling in superior court. But that doesn't hardly mean that Mr. Ryan cleaned anybody's clocks.

| It would be interesting to me to know whether the town council -- meaning an official quorum of the members -- actually agreed prior to Mr. Ryan's hiring, that the town needed a town manager and that one should be a full-time employee paid about $50,000 annually, without a job description, and under a 5 year employment contract which provided for annual pay increases without a commensurate review of results from that position. That doesn't make sense.
