Federal Judge Orders City of Alexandria to Pay Attorney in CLECO Case

The City of Alexandria is now under a federal court deadline to pay the legal fees for one of the attorneys who handled the CLECO case. Otherwise, Federal Judge Dee Drell has ordered U.S. Marshals to seize funds from the city to make the million dollar plus payment.

The judge issued the order Friday, though his ruling about the attorney’s fees dates back more than a year.
