Baker City Judge Sues Mayor

Baker City Judge Mark Plaisance has filed suit against Mayor Leroy Davis and members of his staff to force them to release his paycheck, according to The Advocate. Apparently, Davis has instructed the city treasurer to withold Plaisance's pay until he submits to a drug test.

"Plaisance argues in the lawsuit that under state law, elected officials are not required to submit to drug-testing, and Davis has no authority to withhold his paycheck."
