Kim Gardner Resigns Early as St. Louis Circuit Attorney Amid Controversy.

The hearing on the future of a quo warranto case against outgoing St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner has been postponed after she announced her resignation on Tuesday, nearly two weeks before she had planned to step down. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey's team accused Gardner of neglecting her duties as a prosecutor while she took nursing classes. The next hearing on the quo warranto lawsuit is set for next Tuesday, which could potentially change if there is a circuit attorney appointed and some other developments that happen before next week.
