Dubay concluded that the case should move forward even though he gave himself more time to think about whether the trial should start in July or whether it should start in September after his three-week vacation.

    Nancy, can you find out where Norwalk is on this? If memory serves me correct, Norwalk was part of this coalition with Stamford and partially funded this lawsuit and then I think either decreased funding or dropped out of the lawsuit (due to funding) a few years ago. I have since forgotten as it has been nearly 10 years already…so much for our legal system 🙂 Something for Mayor Rilling and Supt. Rivera to look into?

  2. We are still a participant in the litigation.
