Complaint filed over Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin’s limited office hours

A complaint was filed with three different state agencies Wednesday afternoon asking for an investigation into whether Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin’s limited office hours violate state law.

The Idaho Capital Sun reports, the written complaint was filed via email with the Idaho Attorney General’s Office, the Idaho Secretary of State’s Office and Gov. Brad Little’s office.

McGeachin is running for governor in the May 17 Republican primary election, where she faces off against Little and a field of six other GOP candidates.

The complaint mentions a section of Idaho law that pertains to office hours for public officers in the state of Idaho. That law says, every elected officer must keep his office open for transaction of business from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. each day except upon Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.

A sign posted to the outside of the door to McGeachin’s office at the Idaho State Capitol on Wednesday indicated her office hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on only Tuesdays and Thursdays.
