A friend sent me a motion from Art Shad's divorce proceeding filed in July of last year.
Pasted here is his soon to be ex-wife's Motion for Temporary Needs and Faculties asking for child support and alimony. Pay close attention to Paragraph 1.
Remember, this is one of our city councilmen. Here's a man who, in motions brought by his wife and filed in court proceedings, is described as having "issues concerning drug and alcohol dependency," and shows "behavior disruptive to the family" such that his visits with his children must be supervised.
A quick look at the court docket shows that Art just recently filed his Answers to Interrogatories and financial affidavit in this divorce proceeding, both of which I'll get a hold of in the coming days.
In the meantime, I'll keep looking for Art's Answer to Tim Kelly's lawsuit. I was glad to see that the Times-Union tucked this Kelly lawsuit story deep in its Law and Disorder section in today's online edition. But apart from burying this story, I also noticed that, while the other L&D snippets before and after the Shad piece were given reporter credit to Adam Assen, Bridget Murphy, Paul Pinkham and Dana Treen , the Shad piece had no reporter's name attached to it. It simply had the byline, "The Times Union."
News4Jax also posted the story, but added the 911 calls both Art and Kelly made after the incident. Art claims he was bit twice, but that no skin was broken. Whatever. I'm still awaiting criminal charges. C'mon, Harry, don't let us down.
The Daily Record also gave the story a very tiny plug in its City Notes section today, but wrote erroneously that the lawsuit is seeking $75,000.00 in damages. Kelly has only plead the jurisdictional $15,000.00 to get the case in Circuit Court. The $75,000.00 is a number that's been floated as what Kelly was demanding shortly after the incident.
