The court overturned Gaul's conviction by an inferior court for "dereliction of duty", for which he had been sentenced to 90 days in jail.[3] In 1989, Gaul was criticized for appearing in radio advertisements in which he endorsed certificates of deposits at Transohio Saving Bank. Gaul said he had been paid for the advertisements but donated the payment to charity.[4] Other political offices and candidaciesGaul also served on Cleveland City Council and on the board of the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority.[5] In 1994, Gaul was the Democratic nominee who unsuccessfully challenged incumbent Republican U.S. Rep.
