DOJ files federal lawsuit against Omarosa, alleging she violated ethics law
The federal government on Tuesday filed a civil lawsuit against former White House aide Omarosa Manigault Newman, alleging that she failed to file a required financial disclosure report after she was fired.
The civil action alleges that Manigault Newman is in violation of the Ethics in Government Act “for knowingly and willfully failing to file the required public financial disclosure report after her employment terminated with the Executive Office of the President.”
The Department of Justice is seeking a fine of up to $50,000 against the former "Apprentice" contestant.
In a statement to The Hill, Manigault Newman's attorney John M. Phillips called the allegations "untrue" and claimed that the "White House chooses to abuse process and use the Department of Justice to carry out retaliation."
Phillips maintained that many of the items his client would be required to report on the form were taken by the White House and the White House counsel's office when she was fired. And he claimed that the White House didn't agree to hand over those documents until May.
"We requested an extension until these documents could be returned. However, despite her efforts, they have continued to withhold these documents which are needed to complete the disclosure and now serve media with a complaint before she even has a chance to read it," Phillips said.
