[edit] City Council May Sue Mayor Melton For Financial Info

"The Jackson City Council may sue Mayor Frank Melton to get financial information about vendors the city paid last year.

The City Council plans to vote on an order to compel the mayor to release the financial documents, which the mayor said he will veto, 16 WAPT's Joseph Pleasant reported.

"Anyone who releases that information will be terminated immediately," Melton told his chief administrative officer, Robert Walker, and city attorney, Sarah O'Reily Evans during Tuesday's City Council meeting."
