In a previous post regarding the Redistricting Lawsuit, it was mentioned that the City seems to be prepared to hire a legal firm to take this issue to court.
Two questions came to mind- 1. Why wouldn't the City's "inhouse" legal team have the capacity to review this case? 2. Are there any procedures or restrictions in place for the City to follow when an outside firm(for consulting, legal etc.)is considered for a job. I would be very curious to see the justification from a policy standpoint to start this process by throwing money at the case before all avenues of out of court resolutions were exhausted.
