INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WOWO) — The dispute arose from a news release issued by Rokita following a professional conduct investigation stemming from comments he made during a 2022 interview.

Rokita’s attorneys argue that his statements were consistent with the prior disciplinary agreement and affidavit.

Rokita maintains that the complaint is politically motivated and has asked the Indiana Supreme Court to dismiss the case.

The court has not yet scheduled arguments or issued a timeline for resolving the complaint.
