Tyler case goes to fourth hearing

22/08/2013

By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS

THE trial of City of Casey chief executive officer Mike Tyler will drag into a fourth court hearing in October.
Mr Tyler was charged in March with two breaches of the Local Government Act for allegedly failing to notify the mayor and the council of a conflict of interest in a matter for which he had authority.
The maximum penalty for each offence is about $16,900.
This morning, the case was adjourned for the third time in the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court to allow further negotiations between legal teams for Mr Tyler and the prosecuting Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate.
