Controversial and colorful Warren Mayor will not be allowed to run for reelection.

The political end may be nigh for Warren Mayor Jim Fouts as the Michigan Supreme Court dealt what may be the final blow to his mayoral career.

The court on Wednesday declined to hear an appeal by Warren City Clerk Sonja Buffa and the Warren Election Commission after the Michigan Court of Appeals ruled Fouts was not eligible to run this year for another term as mayor.
