The Frederick County Taxpayers Association led by Donald Richardson will not pursue legal action over alleged inadequacies in the last week's special grand jury report.

The nine month probe followed a six month State Police inquiry begun in January 1975 after the association provided allegations to the Commonwealth Attorney.
