Former Boise City Council Member Lisa Sánchez filed a lawsuit against Boise on Tuesday, arguing that the circumstances of her removal from her council seat were unlawful and asking the court to undo the appointment of her replacement.

Sánchez filed the lawsuit after Mayor Lauren McLean did not choose to appoint her to her former District 3 seat.

The Idaho Statesman reports the city determined that Sánchez vacated her seat in January, when she mistakenly moved to a new residence that was a few blocks outside of District 3.

Sánchez was elected to represent District 3 in 2021, though redistricting completed last year has since changed the bounds and reconfigured the names of Boise’s districts.

In a civil complaint, Sánchez’s lawyer disputed the city’s contention that Sánchez lost her seat, and argued instead that city lawyers and council members “removed” her from her seat.

With or without her seat, Sánchez has indicated she plans to run again in November.
