Lansing — Former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder wants a federal bankruptcy court to hold Attorney General Dana Nessel's office in contempt, arguing confidential documents had been released as part of the Flint water proceedings.
Snyder's attorneys filed a motion Wednesday in Michigan's Eastern District, asking a judge to impose sanctions "appropriate to coerce" the office's compliance with 2013 court orders that required secrecy about the Detroit bankruptcy mediation.
The filing points to concerns that privileged documents related to the bankruptcy have been shared with other defendants and legal teams involved in the Flint prosecution cases.
The mediation occurred at a time when Flint officials were on course to end their service with the Detroit water system in 2014 over concerns that rates were too high. The Eastern District oversaw the mediation that led to the so-called "Grand Bargain" resolving the bankruptcy of Michigan's largest city while Snyder was governor.
