Washington County Judge might be in trouble

[Ostatedchi]

Remember when I said something a few weeks ago about how we have a judge up here that I thought was abusing their authority?

https://www.readfrontier.org/storie...on-office-state-supreme-court-justice-writes/

The Chief Justice of the Oklahoma Supreme Court alleged in a document filed late Wednesday that Washington County District Judge Curtis DeLapp is guilty of gross neglect of duty, oppression in office and asked that DeLapp be removed from judicial office.


This is going to be a dicey situation because he is in a run off for this position. What happens if he is removed from the bench? Is the election still on? What if he wins? Is he even eligible if he is removed?

Interesting times.

You should really read the court filing document. It is pretty amazing.

She’s my gal.

Might be? He gone. Kudos to Combs. We need a conscientous guy like him up and down government. I dont' always agree with him, but he calls them as he sees them without screwball agendas.

I did. Scathing is the word I'd use.

But what if he actually wins reelection?

I don't think it matters, but unlike many posters on here I really don't know. That's a new one. The only judges I know of that got ousted were done.

that’s too bad

I agree. I know Curtis. Our boys went to school together for many years. I've liked him personally. So to hear this is pretty crappy.

Blame it on Russia.

Blame it on Russia.

They've supported worse candidates.
