Holtz, who heads the Beloit school system as superintendent, said he got those who used the wrong year to correct the mistake, and he fully expects to be on the ballot.

Oops #2:

A bank’s mistake caused a Tennessee congresswoman’s home to enter foreclosure.

Bank officials say Republican U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn’s home was placed into foreclosure proceedings because of a processing error.

GreenBank spokesman Bill Adams said in a letter dated Thursday that Blackburn’s husband had authorized several electronic mortgage payments for the suburban Nashville home, but that the bank failed to send the money to Countrywide Financial. Adams says the Greeneville-based bank is working with Countrywide to resolve the issue.

Blackburn was sworn into her fourth term in Congress this week. Her district spans from suburban Memphis to Clarksville.

Oops #3:

James Carroll Franklin, who would have been on probation for his drug conviction will now have to spend six months in jail — all because he fled before hearing a jury’s sentencing verdict.

To make matters worse, he was captured after a high-speed chase through three counties in Texas, for which he faces more charges that could bring additional jail time.

Franklin, 47, of Azle, apparently panicked Wednesday after hearing prosecutors in the Wise County courtroom urge jurors to sentence him to life in prison, said his attorney, Jim Shaw.

Franklin, who was allowed to remain free after being convicted of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, asked Shaw if he would be able to see his daughter and take care of personal business. Shaw said he told Franklin probably not.

But the attorney said he also explained to Franklin that he likely would get probation and that a sentence of less than 10 years would allow him to go free on an appeal bond within 24 hours.

Franklin then went to the restroom, and less than five minutes later jurors returned with their verdict: a $1,000 fine and six years in prison, which they recommended be probated, Shaw said.
