The Center filed its complaint against Westchester in April 2006. Many people are unaware that, in August 2009, the Federal Government filed its own complaint-in-intervention against Westchester, joining the Center in suing the County for having defrauded United States taxpayers.

Read Westchester's memorandum in support of its latest motion (March 10, 2009). The County says that, in the absence of the Court's allowing the County to appeal immediately and put off the trial (relief that the County acknowledges requires "exceptional circumstances"), the County "must decide either to conform its practices to the Court's ruling" or "to withdraw from the CDBG program..." In the interim, Westchester says that it has "suspended its process of drawing on CDBG funds..." See page 6 of the PDF. The motion was denied.
