Resignation
Fox submitted his resignation from the Hawaii state legislature on November 1, 2005. The resignation became effective on December 1, 2005.
Fox told KITV that he informed the governor's office shortly after he was arrested 11 months ago. Lingle's spokesman told KITV 4 she found out about it then. Then the spokesman called KITV Tuesday night and said he was mistaken. He said people in the governor's office knew about the arrest, but the governor did not.

Famous quotes containing the word resignation:
“Resignation, not mystic, not detached, but resignation open- eyed, conscious, and informed by love, is the only one of our feelings for which it is impossible to become a sham.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“How could a man be satisfied with a decision between such alternatives and under such circumstances? No more than he can be satisfied with his hat, which he’s chosen from among such shapes as the resources of the age offer him, wearing it at best with a resignation which is chiefly supported by comparison.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
