Description
An unusually fast verdict this month from the Missouri Supreme Court has set the stage for Missouri voters to use a map in August that could soon be challenged — and reversed — by a public referendum. Meanwhile, in St. Louis, a state-run police board is seeking an expedited ruling to force the city to spend another $67 million on the police budget. On this episode of the Legal Roundtable on “St. Louis on the Air,” a panel of attorneys analyzes the speed, timing, and politics of these cases. They also discuss a federal court judge who used a local immigration case to make a point about national politics, and a Louisiana couple suing a Creve Coeur fertility clinic.
