Attorneys investigation and, you know, what what all conconclusions they came to related to mr. Wong and this case in general. Is that something we can conclusions they came to relates to mr. Wong and this case in general . Is that something we can put forward here or is it something that we would be discussing in a scheduled closed session . Deputy City Attorney ann pearson. I dont think the brown act extends to a broader discussion, which goes to the discussion of this particular settlement. Wed have to determine whether there are grounds for briefing in closed session to talk about that. But given what wed like to to that. Supervisor ronen but given that what wed like to discuss is the broader corruption of the department of building inspection, and given that that might lead to further litigation, i would guess that would not be something that the City Attorney would be willing to have in public and would probably fit in the litigation exception.
