Martin B. O'Boyle v. Town of Gulfsneam
CASE NO.502014CA004474XXXXMBAO (PALM BEACH cOUNTI)
21. O'Boyle has abused the legal system in several states by overwhelming local municipal
governments and a State Attorney's office with the {Bing of thousands ofpublic records requests and
abusive litigation.
22, The case of Martin E. O'Boyle v. Peter Isen, 2014 WL 340104 (N,J,SuperA.D.), issued by the
Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division, on appeal from case no. L- 2341.08, is attached
hereto as Exhibit "411. The Court noted,
From September 2007 through early July 2008, plaintiff and members of his
family filed multiple requests pursuant to the Open Public Records Act (OPkA),
N.I.S.A. 47;IA -1 to -13. Longport's only clerk worked part-time, end she did
not address the requests within the time required by statute. At one point, the
clerk went to the emergency mom because of the stress she attributed to the
flood of OPRA requests. And, in February 2008, the Borough's solicitor notified
plaintiff that it would not accept any additional OPRA requests he filed,
explaining that the numerous requests were substantially disrupting
governments] services, The solicitor claimed that Longport had received 190
requests on October 16 and 17 and thirty filed October 31, 2007.
In the lren case, O'Boyle sued a resident of Longport for claiming O'Boyle was "the enamy of
Longport". The suit for defamation was dismissed by summary ,judgment and affirmed by the
appellate court.
23. Similarly, when his daughter was being prosecuted for driving under the influence, O'Boyle
inundated the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office both individually and through companies
he controls with over 1,300 requests for public records. (attached hereto as Exhlbit "if)).
24. In an interview with the Palm Beach Post discussing his dealings with then candidate Dave
Aronberg, O'Boyle stated,
My view in life is: Take whatever shots you like at me, because I'm a big boy
and I can handle them. But don't mess with my kids, my wife ormy home. Don't
do it Don't. Because I'll come at you with every resource I have. And there's a
lot. (attached hereto as Exhibit 116 ").
