Tucson City Council Election Update: Mayoral petition challenge court hearings on Thursday

Posted by AzBlueMeanie:

Bring the popcorn! (metaphorically speaking, food and drink are not allowed in the courtroom). The mayoral petition challenges are set for hearing on Thursday:

Marshall Home v. Jonathan Rothschild, et al., Case No. C20114129, hearing Thursday, June 16 at 8:30 a.m. in courtroom 486 before the Hon. R. Douglas Holt.

Luke Knipe v. Marshall Home, Case No. C20114259, hearing Thursday, June 16 at 1:30 p.m. in courtroom 486 before the Hon. R. Douglas Holt.

Judge Holt is the presiding judge of the Superior Court for Graham County.

Pima County Superior Court Building, 110 W. Congress Street, Tucson, AZ.

This should be entertaining.
