A D.C. judge ruled that Terrence J. Boyle used the charitable assets of the fraternity and a related foundation to help purchase a Georgetown residence.
against Boyle in June 2021. The court did not order any remedies as part of its judgment. The remaining allegations will proceed to trial.
Defense attorney Harvey J. Volzer, in seeking reconsideration of the decision, argued that the ruling was unfair and based on an incomplete record of evidence — more than 40 defense documents were excluded from consideration because they had not been properly submitted to the court.Volzer, in court papers, attributed the procedural lapse to a serious case of covid-19 for which he was hospitalized and to the actions of his secretary.
Boyle, 81, pledged the DPE Alpha Chapter in 1963 as an undergraduate at Georgetown University and remained deeply involved in its financial and social affairs for the next four decades. He managed the chapter house, oversaw fraternity pledging and organized and participated in a variety of social events, including trips to a Caribbean resort, said several former fraternity members. He served as an officer in the foundation and the fraternity from the 1980s until his resignation in 2021.
The attorney general’s office, which has taken legal action against several nonprofit organizations for the alleged misuse of charitable funds, announced the ruling, along with favorable decisions in two other cases, in a news release Wednesday.
A spokeswoman for his office declined to comment on whether the DPE allegations had been referred for possible criminal investigation.
