School board authorizes settlement authority in Pin Oaks case and approves Marathon Petroleum audit
Summary
After an executive session, the St. John the Baptist Parish School Board granted settlement authority to its attorney in Pin Oaks v. St. John the Baptist Parish School Board and authorized ACI to resume an audit of Marathon Petroleum for 2015–2017.
The St. John the Baptist Parish School Board voted April 12 to grant settlement authority to Attorney Pat Amadee in the Pin Oaks case and to resume an audit of Marathon Petroleum covering 2015–2017.
Board members convened in executive session at 6:53 p.m. to discuss pending litigation, including the LA Board of Tax Appeals docket L01160 and Pin Oaks v. St. John the Baptist Parish School Board. The board reconvened in regular session at 7:26 p.m.
"To approve settlement authority to Attorney Pat Amadee in the case of Pin Oaks vs St. John the Baptist Parish School Board," a motion by Schum seconded by Sanders, carried on roll call: 10 yeas (Holden, Keller, Sanders, DeFrancesch, Jones, Johnson, Schum, Wallace, Triche, Mitchell-Williams), 1 nay (Burl).
The board also voted to "authorize Attorney Pat Amadee and ACI to resume the audit of Marathon Petroleum for the years 2015–2017." That motion passed unanimously on the recorded roll call.
The actions followed the board's executive-session review of pending matters; no additional details about settlement terms or audit scope were provided at the meeting. The motions do not set a public timetable for resolution or report-back; the agenda identified the matters as litigation and audit authorizations.
The board took no further public action on the related cases at the meeting.
