'All Legal Options' on Table in NYTHA Dispute
By Ron Mitchell, December 12, 2014 5:27 PM Bloodhorse
An attorney for Terry Finley said "all legal options" are on the table in his client's quest to seek a new election for president of the New York Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association.
"Short of a fair election where no one is disenfranchised and everyone gets the opportunity to vote, Terry keeps all his legal options on the table," said attorney Andrew Mollica Dec. 12.
Mollica said Finley, president of West Point Thoroughbreds, had filed an official protest of the election, pursuant to the NYTHA's bylaws. He said, however, it is uncertain what the process is as far as the decision to hold another election, or how that would be carried out.
In the Dec. 1 voting, Finley lost to trainer Richard Violette, NYTHA president since 2008, by a vote of 625-611. Finley said he subsequently heard from many NYTHA members who told him they did not receive ballots or received them too late to be able to vote.
