A judge in Kootenai County district court has declared the June 6 appointment of Wanda Quinn to the Coeur d'Alene School Board to be null and void. Trustees Tom Hamilton and Terri Seymour, who were elected in May and sworn into office on July 1, filed a complaint in district court in July. The complaint alleged that the process the board followed when former board chair Edie McLachlan resigned on May 19 was illegal. It further alleges that the appointment of Wanda Quinn to complete McLachlan's term is invalid/Coeur d'Alene Press.
