 OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) - The state Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that a petition to recall embattled Spokane Mayor James E. West can proceed.
Shannon Sullivan, an unemployed mother, filed the petition in May, shortly after The Spokesman-Review newspaper in Spokane published articles detailing how West had met men online for sex.
West's attorneys argued that the petition bearing a single abuse-of-office charge was factually and legally insufficient.
