(Middletown)--An appeals court has overturned the felony conviction of former Butler County Auditor Roger Reynolds. A trio of judges from the 10th District Court of Appeals heard the case for members of the 12th District court, who recused themselves from the case. The judges ruled Reynolds was wrongly convicted on insufficient evidence on a charge of Unlawful Interest in a Public Contract. The judges ordered the lower court to discharge Reynold's case. A 30 day jail sentence was delayed while the case moved through the appeals process. The conviction disqualified Reynolds from serving as auditor, and county treasurer Nancy Nix was chosen to serve out the rest of Reynold's term.
