guenther in
question |
Guenther provided false
information on a Contractor’s Qualification Statement
|
Although Guenther also answered "NO" to the question
of whether there was any litigation pending against them, a former
employee had sued Guenther earlier that same year.
|
Guenther, like all companies bidding on public works projects in Ohio,
filled out a Contractor’s Qualification Statement as part of the process in
bidding on the Medina Junior High School job. When it came time for Guenther
to answer the question "has your organization ever filed any law suits ...
with regard to construction contracts within the last five years?" Guenther
answered "NO." However, court records show that Guenther sued one of their
own subcontractors on a prison job just two years earlier. Although Guenther
also answered "NO" to the question of whether there was any litigation
pending against them, a former employee had sued Guenther earlier that same
year. While some people may pad their resume now and then, these statements
were different. Guenther’s statement, in contrast to a resume, was sworn and
notarized to be "true" and "not misleading." |
