Sue the bastards! Disgraced pol Jim Exline in insurance hell

Exline Disgraced former West Palm Beach City Commissioner Jim Exline this week filed a lawsuit against a woman who caused a chain collision in Lake Worth last year, ultimately injuring him. I’m told the woman’s insurance company, State Farm , wants to pay Exline $6,500 for the medical bills that resulted from the June crash. Exline’s bills are at least five times higher, and counting. So he sued. Exline, 45, made news in 2007 when he resigned his seat and pleaded guilty to tax evasion. He was sent to a federal prison camp near Atlanta for 10 months. Although he wouldn’t comment about the accident or the lawsuit, Exline, an urban planner by trade, says he has been struggling since he rejoined society in April 2008. “There’s absolutely no planning going on out there,” he said today. “I’m just waiting it out, like a

lot of people. I’m a planner. That’s what I do. I don’t know anything else.” And he’s still nursing the injuries that occurred near downtown Lake Worth, when a Hyundai plowed into another car, which then hit Exline’s Jaguar. For more, and a great poll, look below or click Exline suffered spina boo-boos, two herniated and two bulging discs, numbness in his arms and hands. According to the lawsuit, the injuries are permanent. Exline’s political fall was a byproduct of federal probes into political corruption. He was nailed for not reporting to the IRS a $50,000 payment for work he’d done for developer John Sansbury .
