Following up on this May post, an Arizona state representative is still fighting removal from office for alleged campaign finance violations.

Quelland attorney Tim Casey said an appeal will be filed with the Maricopa County Superior Court and pledged that Quelland was innocent and will benefit from discovery and due process available at the trial court level. Casey hinted the appeal would include a challenge to the CCEC’s authority to remove Quelland since the commission is made up of unelected appointees whose decision effectively overturns public will expressed in the 2008 elections.
