(Omaha, NE) -- A lawsuit is being filed to try to stop bonds from being sold for a new juvenile justice center in downtown Omaha. David Lanphier, a former Nebraska Supreme Court justice, filed paperwork on Monday, just days before the bond sale is scheduled to close. The Douglas County Board and Omaha City Council were scheduled to take final procedural votes for the Douglas County justice center yesterday, but the items were removed from their agendas, according to the Omaha World-Herald. Lanphier argues that the project will not be a joint use between the city and county, as is required by law. The attorney for the Omaha-Douglas County Building Commission says delays caused by the suit could make the project more expensive.
