Indiana Court of Appeals
Ross Graham Thomas v. Joseph Foyst
24A-MI-251
Miscellaneous. Reverses the Bartholomew Circuit Court’s order in favor of Joseph Foyst. Remands with instructions to declare Bryan Muñoz the winner of the 2023 general election for the District 6 seat on the Columbus City Council. Finds that Foyst’s candidacy should be nullified because the notice of caucus was not timely submitted. Also, finds the clerk was barred by statute from receiving both the notice of caucus and the certificate of candidate selection because both documents were not timely filed. Finally, finds the clerk’s actions in violation of the applicable statutes were, by definition, ultra vires, and thus Foyst’s candidacy never existed in the eyes of the law.

But for now at least, the dismissal Monday by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon brings a stunning and abrupt halt to a criminal case that at the time it was filed was widely regarded as the most perilous of all the legal threats the Republican former president confronted.
Donald Trump has selected Sen. JD Vance of Ohio as his Republican running mate.
