Yesterday, the Plain Dealer reported that Akron federal District Court Judge Sara Lioi dismissed the City of Cleveland's lawsuit alleging nuisance against 16 banks in connection with the nation's "subprime lending and foreclosure crisis," which has disproportionately hit the greater Cleveland area. The docket and opinion dated 5/15/09 in the case can be found on PACER under Case No. 1:08-cv-00139SL. The docket also reflects that the City already appealed the Judge's decision to the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.
