RUMFORD — A district court judge has granted a protection from abuse order alleging sexual abuse against an Auburn lawyer who is seeking election to become the district attorney for Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford counties. The order was requested by one of Seth Carey’s former clients, a woman who has been living at his house in Rumford. Carey, who most recently practiced law in Rumford, recently moved his practice to Auburn. The motion for a protection from abuse order was filed against Carey, 42, at Rumford District Court last week and granted Friday. In an email to the Sun Journal, Carey said the accusation is a “100 percent a false fabrication.” “I am very confident that this mistake of law by the judge will be corrected on appeal,” he wrote. According to the victim’s request for the order, she believed Carey posed an “immediate and present danger” to her, and that he had sexually assaulted her in the home they shared. The victim, who had been a client of Carey’s, moved into his home in 2017.
