Mississippi Governor Residence Dispute Sparks Court Fight
The leading attorney for Governor Russell of Mississippi says Judge Holmes has ruled Oxford as the governor’s legal residence, remitting Frances Birkhead’s suit to that city. He argues the Jackson residence places the governor out of Oxford jurisdiction and that service cannot be secured, signaling the case’s possible end in court while the public may still demand answers.
