HB 1858 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Adds provisions relating to quo warranto judgments

This bill amends Missouri law regarding quo warranto cases (court challenges to unlawful office holding). If a person is found guilty of unlawfully holding an office, the court must order their removal from that office and impose a permanent bar from holding, being appointed to, or appearing on ballots for that specific office. It directly affects officials convicted in such legal challenges. The law replaces an older section with these specific penalties to ensure disqualified individuals cannot regain the position they unlawfully held.
