Former Indiana court justice to hear Curtis Hill misconduct case

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indiana Supreme Court is appointing a former justice to hear a professional misconduct case against Attorney General Curtis Hill.

The court on Monday named Myra Selby to the case, rejecting Hill’s motion opposing the appointment of a hearing officer or panel.

The court also rejected the disciplinary commission’s request for a three-person panel to hear the case.

The commission says Hill violated indiana’s professional conduct rules for attorneys by drunkenly groping four women during a party in March 2018. 

A special prosecutor later declined to pursue criminal charges against Hill, and Hill has denied any wrongdoing.
