Boykin back on the ballot

A rebuttal of a Tunica Times story on the front page of the 3 Jul 2015 issue: DEC's appeal of Boykin order dismissed.

1. "The DEC withdrew its challenge to Dishmon-Boykin just prior to a May 14 hearing before Special Circuit Judge Henry Lackey." 


There is still a lot of confusion about this proceeding.  I have been told by several members of the DEC that they voted to not certify Boykin to run for election.  So, who made this agreement?  No one on this committee had the authority to make such an agreement and that includes the chair.


2. "...the panel finds that the appeal in the matter was untimely filed and the appeal should be dismissed."  I have been told by several members of the DEC that they were told they had 10 days to file an appeal.  Later, they found an appeal had to be filed within 3 days.


Go back and review the facts presented on this blog.  The date is 23 May 2015.  The post is Justice Court Judge for the Southern District.  The facts are still the same.  Jacqueline Dishmon-Boykin did not and does not meet the requirements to be elected as a Justice Court Judge for the Southern District in Tunica County, MS.
