Referred: Emerging Issues(H)
Summary
The bill replaces the current Section 531.050 with new language that permits a court to order the removal of anyone convicted of unlawfully holding a public office, impose a fine, and award prosecution costs. It also permanently bars that person from holding, being appointed to, or appearing on a ballot for the same office. The change is meant to give courts clearer authority to address illegal office‑holding.
