Ind. Decisions - "Former Clinton County auditor prevails on appeal"
The COA decision March 18th in the case of Clinton County, et al. v. Jacqueline R. Clements, et al. (ILB summary here) was the subject of a March 19th story by Amanda Hamon in the Lafayette Journal Courier. A quote:
In a unanimous decision, the appeals panel upheld a 2010 Montgomery Circuit Court decision vindicating Jacque Clements in a lawsuit the county filed against her in 2009.The civil suit had accused Clements, auditor from 2004 until 2008, of fraud and negligence involving the county's brief contract with a tax software company.
Additionally, the appeals court ruled that Clinton County must reimburse Clements' attorney fees -- an amount she said is between $50,000 and $60,000.
