Montana Supreme Court rules governor lacks power to remove Sullivan
The Montana Supreme Court, in a four to one decision, upholds that the governor cannot remove Sullivan from the state law commission without due notice and hearing. The ruling ends a long conflict dating to April 17, 1934, when Governor Cooney revoked the appointments of three commissioners for alleged failure to appoint a state editor. The majority, per curiam, says removal authority cannot rest solely with the appointing power. dissenting Justice Angstman dissented.
