Halbert case dismissed
November was an eventful month, with the Presidential election, Thanksgiving, and a new round of frustration with our local justice system.
As you know, I’ve been paying careful attention to the ouster case against the Shelby County Clerk. Once again, the case has been dismissed for lack of standing. This was the opinion of a circuit court judge who ruled that the county attorney’s office could not hire outside counsel as a way to work around her conflict of interest.
I released a statement on this second dismissal, and I also joined Memphis Morning News to discuss the latest developments in the case.
The court has wasted an entire year focusing on technicalities, without a moment’s consideration of the real problems harming real people in Shelby County. The merits of this case need to be heard. Then, and only then, will this matter be resolved.
