Ind. Courts - Terre Haute mayoral battle now heads to trial court
Austin Arceo reports in the Terre Haute Trib-Star:
Both candidates and their attorneys head to court Monday to argue Burke’s challenge of Bennett’s eligibility for candidacy based on the Hatch Act.Burke alleges that Bennett violated the federal act, which limits the political activity of employees of some not-for-profits receiving federal money.
Bennett is the director of operations at Hamilton Center, Inc., which runs an Early Head Start program, a program that gets federal money.
Judge David Bolk, of Vigo Superior Court Division 3, will be the person to determine the merits of the challenge.
