Timothy Logan McCurdy (born 16 January 1963[1]) is an Australian politician. He has been a member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly since 2010, representing Murray Valley until 2014 and Ovens Valley thereafter. He was the shadow minister for sport, veterans, gaming and liquor control.
In October 2014, it was revealed that McCurdy had been accused by a former staffer, Jillian McGillivray, of harassment and bullying, with lawyers for McGillivray expecting her case to be listed before the Wangaratta Magistrates Court in November. McCurdy denied any wrongdoing.[2]
In July 2017, it was reported that McCurdy was being investigated by police for alleged fraud, after complaints that, when working as a real estate agent in 2009, he had falsified documents to secure sales commissions worth about $375,000.[3] In March 2018, police charged McCurdy with multiple fraud offences, and he stood down from his shadow ministry portfolios.[4] In October 2018 it was announced that he would stand trial on ten fraud charges.[5]
