I have been reading your web site for two or more years now. I have never seen posted a law suit against Federal, State , County , City government. I know that there are such legal filings. How is it that you never have listed these law suits? DO YOU EVER INTEND TO?
Hi Ray, Yes we do post some of these, but many times such lawsuits would be either qui tam whistleblower lawsuits (more federal in that case usually) or employment lawsuits (including discrimination), or breach of security lawsuits. We typically, however, will report on lawsuits that affect many individuals in such cases rather than one individual's complaint.
