Board votes to move into closed session to discuss pending litigation

Humboldt County Board of Supervisors · November 3, 2025

Summary

Following a motion and second, the board took a roll-call vote and recessed into closed session to "discuss strategies with counsel in matters that are presently in litigation or where litigation is imminent," as cited in the record.

Near the close of the public session, a member moved to adjourn into closed session under the statutory basis to discuss litigation strategy with counsel. The motion read aloud referenced discussing strategies in matters presently in litigation or where litigation is imminent and the potential prejudice that public disclosure could cause to the county's position.

A second was recorded, and the clerk or chair called a roll-call vote (the transcript records affirmative responses as members were polled). The board then moved into closed session; no substantive litigation strategy or details are recorded in the public transcript segment provided.

The motion referenced the statutory basis for closed sessions when litigation is pending or imminent and when disclosure would likely prejudice the county's position. Any follow-up or outcomes from the closed session were not part of the public transcript captured here.
