City of New Johnsonville v. Kevin E. Handley, et al. & Gene Plant, et al., v. Kevin E. Handley, et al. - Concurring

Case Number
M2003-00549-COA-R3-CV

I agree with the careful reasoning in the majority opinion, with clarification on the remedy ultimately available. Here, ouster of the public official alleged to have engaged in self-dealing, Handley, is likely a moot issue, since the record apparently indicates that his term of office as Councilman ended the day before the settlement with the City. The settlement, however, left the Handleys with a handsome profit from the land transaction at issue, profit that the Taxpayers apparently allege should be disgorged as the product of the wrongdoing.
