Minutes of Executive Session March 19, 1980 Following a unanimous vote to go into executive session, resumes and notes taken during personal interviews were reviewed on all eleven (11) applicants.

' DISTRICT ATTORNEY NORFOLK DISTRICT WILLIAM D. DELAHUNT 618 HIGH ST. DISTRICT ATTORNEY March 28, 1980 DEDHAM. MASS. 02026 326-1600 Ms . Tanna Kasperowicz Community Editor Cohasset Mariner Box 71 Cohasset, MA 02025 Dear Ms . Kasperowicz : The following is our response to your written complaint that at a Cohasset Selectmen' s meeting on March 19 , 1980 , Selectman Henry Ainslie voted on the appointment of a group of permanent intermittent police officers that included his nephew and his second cousin. Mr. Ainslie has verified the basic facts and added that he is aware of the relationship but is not personally acquainted with the second cousin. Thisoffice is responsible for enforcing certain criminal conflict of interest sections in G.L. c . 268A. Sections 18 , 19 and 20 define criminal violations by municipal employees . Section 19 (a) states that it is a violation for a municipal employee to participate as such in a particular matter in which "his immediate family" has a financia'1 interest. The definition of "immediate family" in G.L. c . 268A is expressly limited by Section 1 to "the employee and his spouse, and their parents, children, brothers and sisters . " It follows that a Selectman' s vote on the appointment of a nephew or second cousin is not a violation of the criminal provisions of this act. A second important factor in this case is that one of the other Selectmen had abstained from the votes in question , and if Selectman Ainslie had abstained the validity of a vote by only one participating member of a three member board would be open to question. The Supreme Judicial Court has recog- nized that in some cases in similar circumstances "participa- tion despite disqualification, under a rule of necessity" may be necessary and permissible. Graham v. McGrail , 370 Mass . 133 (1976) . The rule of necessity issue need not be resolved in this case because the subjects of the vote were not members of the "immediate family" as defined- in the statute. . ».a.,,.,..-.w.. �. 1x�«ai�,-. .s.�u.:,...... .s,,.�w`..�x�SscwRah.•....r,+�-�., ems . Tanna Kasperowicz -2- March 28 , 1980 We express no comment on the Selectman' s participation in this vote other than our legal conclusion that G.L. c . 268A, § 19 was not violated.
