DETROIT, Sept. 2 (UPI) -- Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm asked the state's Supreme Court to quickly decide if she has the right to consider removing Detroit's mayor from office.
Granholm, in a letter to the Michigan Supreme Court, asked the judges to immediately take up a lawsuit in which embattled Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is challenging her right under the state's constitution to have hearings aimed at his removal from office, the Detroit Free Press reported Tuesday.
