Way sues Perot over slander in Maryland appeal
Lawrence A. Way, former Burkittaville mayor and ex-county candidate, appeals a Maryland Court of Special Appeals ruling in his suit against Ross Perot and others for slander and invasion of privacy tied to his firing as a local organizer of a 1902 petition drive to place Perot on Maryland's presidential ballot. The court pressed for damages specifics and debated the relevance of allegations about the Ku Klux Klan and a credit reporting inquiry. A decision is not expected until later this year.

Joke sparks Way Klan rumor amid Maryland Perot drama

Way denies the link, noting the joke involved cats, not bigotry, and blames a campaign rival for aiming to discredit him amid a dispute over the 1992 petition drive in Frederick County.
