Names of law firms have been redacted from the Bills and Claims report. The Supreme Court of California in Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors v. Superior Court, (2016) 2 Cal.5th 282, held that invoices specifying the amounts billed by a law firm to a client fall within the scope of attorney-client privilege while the matters are active. In accordance with the Supreme Court’s ruling, the names of law firms retained by the Stadium Authority, and the specific amounts billed by each, have been redacted from the public report to maintain the confidentiality of billing records for specific legal services. The aggregate amount spent on legal services in the subject time period has been provided.
