Judge John Torbitzky of the Missouri Court of Appeals' Eastern District issued several orders in the case of Kimberly Gardner, forcing the embattled attorney to turn over records relating to her work as a nurse.
The St. Louis Circuit Attorney was accused in February by Republican Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey of neglecting her duties. He filed a writ of quo warranto, seeking action allowing him to remove a prosecutor under state law. The attorney general accused Gardner of failing to perform her job successfully by taking nursing classes at St. Louis University’s School of Nursing.
At a press conference on Wednesday, William ‘Bill’ Corgan, the deputy attorney general of the state of Missouri, said Torbitzky noted prosecutors are entitled to 90% of the documents they asked for.
