Initial decision comes as lawyers in taxpayer suit seek a court order to stop the City Council from considering settlement plan
A Superior Court judge has refused to consolidate three lawsuits over San Diego city real estate deals, saying in a tentative ruling Wednesday that such a move would “not be in the interests of justice” and would create more problems than it would solve.
The proposed resolution was sharply criticized by the city attorney, who publicly urged the council to reject the deal, saying it would let defendants keep “ill-gotten gains” and wrongly indemnify them against future litigation. “While it is true that some of the issues overlap, not all of them do, and the court fears consolidation will create more case management problems than it solves,” he wrote.
“We have faith the judiciary will make the 101 Ash case decision based on law and fact,” she said. “This decision reaffirms that faith.”
