A pre-trial conference has been scheduled for 10 a.m. May 23 in the stealing and forgery case against former Southwest City Clerk Dehonna Shields.
Ms. Shields' attorney, Charles R. Rhoades, Neosho, filed a motion to dismiss and a motion for continuance because of a conflict in his schedule, according to court records. Her arraignment had been scheduled for Monday.
Ms. Shields was arrested after a state audit indicated funds had been stolen from the city.
