Mayor James Perkins, Jr. filed suit against the city council over a version of the budget that passed earlier in the year.
The lawsuit was in response to a budget the council passed back in March — that defunded several departments.
“As members of the council we are stewards of Selma’s finances. The buck has to stop with us. That’s what we were put up there for,” said Council President Billy Young.“We have continued the case that was before Judge Wiggins up through October 1. And the hope is that we can get a balanced budget,” said Perkins.
