Filed in Marshall County Circuit Court Wednesday, former 42nd Circuit Court Division I Judge Jamie Jameson has entered a suit of complaint seeking injunctive relief against Andrea Moore — who defeated him for the seat in the November 8 general election.
In this suit, Jameson asks for three points of reparations from the court:
— Declare void on the December 8 election, in which Moore won convincingly following vote tallies in Marshall County;
— Order Moore to comply with the law and canons of judicial ethics in a new election;
— And enjoin Moore and her supporters from engaging in “unfair campaigning tactics,” which would include the supposed threatening of individuals and businesses for supporting his candidacy, false reporting, and the misuse of Judicial Conduct Commission efforts for political purposes.
In Wednesday’s filing, Jameson and his legal team promote 23 facts and applicable laws against Moore, which includes a number of allegations and concerns:
— Moore engaged in unfair, untrue and misleading tactics to carry out her strategy.
— Public defender Amy Hardwood-Jackson and licensed attorney Lisa DeRenard were “co-conspirators” of an insidious plot, set to levy or help levy a number complaints against Jameson to the JCC that would position Moore “at a time close to the election” to be able to state that Jameson had a “number of complaints” against him.
— Moore posted on social media platform Facebook, often referencing Murray Ledger & Times coverage, that Jameson had “45 complaints” filed against him at the time of the election, confirming this supposed sabotage.
— According to an “anonymous report,” Moore’s campaign “may have” accepted financial campaign donations from a corporation or partnership of some form.
— Moore made “hundreds of misleading, and even patently false statements and representations” to voters throughout the 2022 primary and general election cycles.
— Days before December 8, Moore contacted Marshall County radio station WCBL for the purpose of “changing the content” of an ad she’d scheduled, or make a new one, that “clearly intended to confuse voters and suppress the turnout of Jameson supporters” in Marshall and Calloway counties. Supposedly, it suggested that Jameson had been removed from the ballot, and multiple witnesses provided statements noting they opted not to vote because of the ad.
— False and exaggerated claims made by Moore and supporters, regarding Jameson “being some terrible monster that physically abused every female within reach over 20 years.”
— Multiple allegations of improper and aggressive sign placement in Calloway and Marshall counties.
— And more.
After winning in Calloway County by more than 150 votes, Jameson lost his native Marshall County by more than 2,000, and he ascertains in this suit that he and his family have “enjoyed strong reputations in the [region] for decades,” and “public opinion was very strong in support of [him]” prior to the “unfathomable negative, misleading and untrue campaign tactics” from Moore.
Jameson’s hearing with the JCC occurred out of his jurisdiction, in Christian County.
