COLUMBIA, S.C. (Legal Newsline) - Sanctions imposed by a South Carolina circuit court against a former communications director for the Berkeley County School District were upheld on appeal by the state’s Court of Appeals.
Under the court’s per curiam opinion filed Dec. 9, former Communications Director Amy Kovach is ordered to pay $48,000 in attorneys fees to Joshua Whitley and his mother Dr. Karen Whitely, currently the Associate Superintendent of Human Resources for the district. Kovach had sued the Whitleys for civil conspiracy.
Kovach’s action against the Whitleys stems from a $198 million bond question approved by the voters in 2012; both mother and son had campaigned against the bond. Kovach filed the lawsuit after pleading guilty in 2015 to charges that she used government resources while a school district employee to influence the outcome of the vote.
