Mississippi SB2273 amends the state code to provide for the removal of appointed state officers for willful neglect or criminal convictions. Willful neglect includes failure to respond to subpoenas, failure to comply with court-ordered repayments, and missing more than three consecutive meetings without justification. The Attorney General investigates complaints and petitions for removal if warranted. The bill also allows for removal if an officer is convicted of a felony, corruption, or gambling with public funds.
