South Dakota governor's office wants court to reseal Noem credit card spending

The Dakota Scout receives threat of legal action after auditor's office turned over invoices this week

The request also asks that the office to force The Scout to return the records.

Those records were obtained Feb. 6 after The Scout agreed to settle a lawsuit the paper brought last year after months of negotiations with Attorney General Marty Jackley and State Auditor Rich Sattgast.

Much of the former governor’s spending was on extravagant hotel suites, entertainment expenses and private airfare.
