A Constitution Party candidate who unsuccessfully tried to get on the November South Dakota ballot for the U.S. House of Representatives is suing Secretary of State Jason Gant to be placed on the ballot.
Patrick Snay was the former head of a private preparatory school in Miami. At the age of 69, his contract with Gulliver Preparatory School wasn't renewed, which led to a legal battle.
In November 2011, Snay and the school reached an agreement in which Snay would receive $10,000 in back pay and $80,000 as part of a settlement. The Gulliver schools also agreed to pay Snay's attorneys $60,000.
