MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - The six circuit judges in Montgomery
County have disqualified themselves from hearing a lawsuit filed by
a legislative oversight committee seeking to stop a $13 million
no-bid computer contract.
The judges said in a one paragraph order released Wednesday that
they all know defendants and plaintiffs in the case personally or
professionally. It will be up to Alabama Supreme Court Chief
Justice Sue Bell Cobb to appoint a judge to hear the lawsuit.
The Legislature's Contract Review Committee and its chairman -
Democratic Rep. Alvin Holmes of Montgomery - filed the lawsuit
against Gov. Bob Riley, Acting State Finance Director Bill Newton
and the company, Paragon Source LLC.
It asks a judge to immediately stop Paragon Source from doing
any work or receiving payment.
