The lawsuit, filed Monday, involves decisions made in the 2021 ethics cases of former Montgomery Police Chief Ernest Finley and then-Chief of Operations Jennifer Reaves.
According to the suit, Marshall’s office says the Ethics Commission violated the Alabama Administrative Procedures Act by adopting a rule that states it does not have to disclose information or evidence to someone under investigation that could aid in their defense or clear them of any charges.
The AG’s office said the commission’s actions now undermine cases the commission may refer to the AG’s office for possible prosecution. In January, Marshall addressed the commission, saying an investigation into the 2021 ethics case of Finley and Reaves found “demonstratively false evidence” and “material misrepresentations of fact.”and took the rare step of stripping the commission’s then-general counsel and a senior investigator from representing the state in legal matters.
