Jefferson County Sewer Customer Sues

A Jefferson County sewer system customer sued current and former county commissioners, Wall Street banks, bond insurers and others on Tuesday, contending that some of the deals to pay for work on the sewer system involved negligence and fraud.

The complaint, filed in Jefferson County Circuit Court, seeks money damages for losses suffered by sewer ratepayers "due to defendants' wrongful conduct and dereliction of duties, which has directly caused or contributed to the wrongful increases in their sewer rates."
