Mayor Adam Paul's impeachment hearing set for Monday
The impeachment hearing Ellisville Mayor Adam Paul, will continue as planned on Monday night.
<br><br>
A judge ruled against Paul's lawyer, Chet Pleban's request to postpone the hearing. The Post-Dispatch reports that Pleban claimed the city council was biased against Paul and the impeachment proceedings were unconstitutional. The judge said those issues should be raised at the hearing, which is being held one night before the city council elections.

Paul is facing impeachment for several reasons, including allegedly throwing a former council member out of a meeting last year.
