I found what I think is a big, as-of-yet unreported news story in one of the lawsuits in the FOIA Project‘s compressive database. I just wrote it up for a new TRAC special report.

It involves a really nasty dispute between two companies that had been partners in military housing projects valued at more than $2 billion. One of the companies accused the other of poor management and tried to kick it out of the projects. Now the other claims that tens of millions of dollars meant for the housing projects is being used to pay the other company’s legal bills. Caught in the middle are more than 11,000 military families.
