2 Miss. judicial bribery cases before 5th Circuit
A federal appeals court has granted oral arguments in the appeals of a once-successful attorney and two former judges in a bribery case.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will hear arguments July 10 in Houston, Texas, in one of two Mississippi judicial bribery cases before the court next month.
Attorney Paul Minor was convicted of backing loans to former Harrison County judges Wes Teel and John Whitfield in exchange for favorable court rulings. The judges were convicted of taking bribes.
