State Ethics Commission, attorney Regan Keebaugh, while an attorney with the firm of Parks, Chesin & Walbert, brought an action that ultimately yielded a $280,000 settlement on behalf of his client, who was fired after disclosing that two attorneys for the Ethics Board were operating a separate consulting firm on state time.

Full coverage of the settlement can be found in this article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
