INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.  – Former Vigo County School Corporation Superintendent Danny Tanoos is facing bribery charges in Marion County.

He is accused of helping a company gain approvals of millions of dollars in contracts in exchange for dinners, tickets to games and other items.

The Marion County Court denied his request to dismiss the charges. He appealed that ruling. The appeals court upheld the charges.

Now Tanoos has filed to ask the Indiana Supreme Court to take up the case.

Tanoos’s attorneys say that the prosecution has not proven actual wrong-doing under state code.
