The Town and Lawsuits...

On go the list of lawsuits against the town. The latest lawsuit as reported by the New Haven Register article entitled "Woman sues Picard, city to get job back", is by former deputy tax assessor, Janet L. Aiken. You may recall the Mayor, citing job-related insubordination, fired Janet on May 19.

The article is an interesting read - apparently Mayor Picard is being sued as an indivdual as well as in his professional capacity.

Sadly, this is more costs that the taxpayer will ultimately bear, whether or not the suit achieves its goal of financial relief as well as restoration of Janet to her job.
