0:00It's March 11th in Birmingham. Let's get into the news. The City of Lipscomb has sued its mayor, Robin Sims II, claiming he is blocking officials from doing their jobs in disrupting city. Opera Iggymigal Core papers say the mayor kept the city clerk out of City Hall and failed to file key paperwork to officially recognize the police chief with state, agencies. Meanwhile, last month, the mayor stirred things up on social media by accusing council members and past leaders of misconduct, including claims they took double their pay. He also opposed council picks for roles like police chief, city clerk, and city attorney, which upset many. The city council responded that those statements were not okay by the city and urged using proper legal pass for complaints. This comes after a chaotic first council meeting back in February over its own legality. The suit now seeks a restraining order to ensure the clerk and police chief can access buildings freely.
