Westminster City Defends Lawsuit Over Discrimination Claims
Westminster has spent at least $1.25 million in legal costs through July defending a suit by three former Latino police officers alleging discrimination. The case Flores v. Westminster is on appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court. A federal jury initially ordered the city to pay about $3.5 million to the officers, later reduced to $3.3 million, with $160,000 for retaliation.
