A False Statement Under Oath Complaint

False Statement Under Oath


Perjury is a false statement made while under oath. It is a crime. For Worcester County the District Attorney usually does not prosecute perjury found in civil cases.  It seems that Mr. Gaffney has made a false statement under oath.

I have sent a complaint to the Board of Bar Overseers  regarding the issue.  See below.

Re: Amendment to Complaint against Michael T. Gaffney

Dear Ms., Kaufman:

I would like to amend my complaint against Mr. Gaffney found in my letter dated July 7, 2016.

The amendment is that Mr. Gaffney perjured himself in his Admission (Exhibit 1) to defendant’s Request for Admission (Exhibit 2)

Defendant’s Request for Admission No. 29 is as follows,

“In Response to Defendant’s Interrogatory No. 28 you did not deny you wrote the offensive social media posts about Sarai Rivera as seen in Worcester Magazine”

Mr. Gaffney Admission to Request for Admission No. 29 is the following,

“Denied, the Plaintiff objected to the interrogatory and advised that the information sought not reasonably calculated to lead to admissible discovery”

Interrogatory No. 28 is found in Exhibit 3. It reads as follows,

“Please refer to Worcester Magazine stories attached to instant Questions. Did you author any of the social media posts with your name appearing in the reference Worcester Magazine stories?  

Although the Plaintiff wrote “Denied” in his Admission, an objection is not a denial. Being an attorney Mr. Gaffney knows that an objection is not a denial.

 The Denial by Mr. Gaffney is a false statement made under oath.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,

Gordon T. Davis
