The House Resolution introduced by T. Millett calls for the censure and immediate resignation of Bozeman Municipal Judges J. Colleen Herrington and Karolina Tierney due to allegations of official misconduct and malfeasance in office. The resolution outlines a series of events beginning in March 2024, where Judge Tierney ordered bondsman John Looney to pay a bond forfeiture for a bond he neither signed nor was aware of, as he did not own the company at the time. Despite the Commissioner of Securities and Insurance rejecting a complaint against Looney, the judges suspended his bonding privileges, an action they were not authorized to take. This led to Looney filing complaints against both judges with the Judicial Standards Commission, which he was entitled to do under the First Amendment.

The resolution further details that the judges' actions constituted extortion, as they allegedly demanded Looney withdraw his complaints in exchange for restoring his bonding privileges. The House of Representatives finds that the judges' conduct violated public trust and was unbecoming of elected officials. Consequently, the resolution formally censures both judges and calls for their immediate resignation, with copies of the resolution to be sent to the judges and the Chief Justice of the Montana Supreme Court.
