For copies of legal papers involved in the lawsuit go to The Villages News website. Someone has posted everything there for all to see. It seems apparent from everything that I have read, that this is about money and btw, the lawsuit is not just against the Lifelong Learning College. There are 32 people involved in this lawsuit some of which appear to be husband and wife. While I support their need and right to be accommodated in reasonable ways, I do not support 32 people who caused the LLC to be shut down, removing opportunities for over 100,000 residents of The Villages. The classes were my biggest draw to this community without the opportunity for clubs and classes, I would not be living here. I can see the handwriting on the wall.
