Solano County District Attorney David Paulson recently prepared and served a Petition for Writ of Mandate on the River Delta Unified School District. The Petition sought to force the District’s Board of Trustees to perform additional auditing of its school bond construction program. On Thursday morning, August 14, 2008, Solano County Superior Court Judge Harry S. Kinnicutt refused to grant the District Attorney's proposed petition which could have held up school construction projects funded by State and local bond revenue until additional audits were done by the School Board.
