Unreported campaign funds to pay for her removal lawsuit.

AUSTIN -- The Austin attorney who filed a lawsuit to remove Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg from office has now filed an ethics complaint against Lehmberg, citing alleged unreported campaign contributions the district attorney used to pay for her removal lawsuit.

Kerry O'Brien filed complaints against Lehmberg and Patricia Summerville, the assistant campaign treasurer for the "Friends of Rosemary Lehmberg" SPAC. O'Brien's complaint claims Lehmberg used $227,885.46 in "unidentified, unreported" campaign contributions to pay her lawyers for their work in her removal lawsuit.

O'Brien says between July and December 2013, Lehmberg reported zero campaign contributions, but a January 2014 report shows the payment made to the Richards, Rodriguez & Skeith LLP law firm on Dec. 27, 2013.

In April 2013, Lehmberg was arrested for drunk driving and was convicted shortly afterward. In December 2013, a judge ruled that the district attorney could keep her job.
