Clayton County Board of Education Member Michael King said on Thursday that he may seek a new, four-year term on the school board later this year, in an attempt to continue a legal battle that has consumed much of his current term.

On Jan. 25, Clayton County Superior Court Judge Deborah Benefield dismissed the petition for judicial review that King filed last spring. King was appealing the school board's March 2009 decision to uphold a ruling by the board's ethics commission that said King should be removed from office because of a conflict of interest issue.
