EPISODE 14: A DEEP DIVE ON MUNICIPALITY LITIGATION - a podcast by InstituteForLegalReform

In March 2019, ILR released its groundbreaking white paper, Mitigating Municipality Litigation: Scope and Solutions, which examined a then-emergent surge in litigation by cities, counties, and other political subdivisions seeking to harness the business community with responsibility for a wide range of societal ills.

Two years later, that trend has experienced massive growth, with thousands of locality plaintiffs asserting claims that, until recently, were understood to belong to states alone.

This episode features Page Faulk, ILR’s senior vice president for legal reform initiatives, Elbert Lin and Trevor Cox of the Hunton Andrews Kurth Law firm. Elbert and Trevor are the authors of both of ILR’s Municipality Litigation research papers
