And when the council terminated Jenkins in May of last year, City Administrator, Candice Miller was also sent home.  Her lawsuit against the council for wrongful termination is still pending, but both sides entered court-ordered arbitration in an attempt to settle the case out-of-court. 

When we showed up to court this afternoon, we saw Miller and her attorney, Magali Perdomo, heading into an empty courtroom for some privacy to discuss among themselves. Shortly after that, we saw the Mayor, Bernard Wagner, the New City Administrator and attorney Anthony Sylvestre exit from the Chief Justice’s courtroom from their private discussion.

The arbitration proceedings are private, and the two sides told us that they cannot discuss it as part of confidentiality agreements they made.

You will remember that Miller became the center of a political controversy at City Hall after it was revealed that the outgoing Darrel Bradley Administration signed a new 4-year contract with her in September 2017. Her contract became a part of the PUP’s election campaign to “clean upâ€￾ City Hall.
