Hazelton’s Costly ($2.4 Million) Immigration Lesson

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has upheld a district court decision requiring the City of Hazelton, PA to pay $2.4 million in attorneys fees and costs to the Plaintiffs instead of their insurance carrier. The Plaintiffs (Pedro Lozano, Casa Dominicana of Hazleton Inc., Hazleton Hispanic Business Association and the Pennsylvania Statewide Latino Coalition) recently prevailed in their challenge to Hazleton’s controversial immigration law.
