ZEB LITTLE: GUILTY OF DUI
Senate Majority Leader Zeb Little has pleaded guilty to driving under the influence and having an open liquor container in his car.
Little appeared Monday morning in Jefferson County district court. Judge Sheldon Watkins fined the Democrat from Cullman $625 and gave him a 30-day suspended sentence.
Little will also lose his license for 90 days. The judge dismissed charges of having an expired driver’s license and failing to yield to an emergency vehicle.
so i guess ole zeb is human after all…i think we all know a good person that made a mistake or two in life…forgive the guy and go on…
*** 2-year Chancellor Byrne to resign in August ***
Two-year college Chancellor Bradley Byrne has submitted a letter of resignation to members of the State Board of Education.
Byrne told presidents of the state’s community colleges in a letter Monday that his resignation will be effective August 31, or sooner if a replacement is found earlier.
The former Republican state senator from Baldwin County left the Legislature to take over the system in 2007. Since then he has backed policies and changes to guard against the corruption and nepotism scandals that had rocked the system.
Byrne is considered a likely candidate for governor in 2010 and is expected to make an announcement on his plans soon. He said in the letter that his intention is “to take the reform fight to another arena.”
Is DUI a felony?
# 6 …i think the third one is a felony…not positive though..
Thank you, CC.
