A judge's signature is all that is needed for it to be over. In a joint statement issued Wednesday afternoon, Councilman Richard Furstenau and the city announced each has signed an agreement settling a civil rights lawsuit the councilman brought against the city.
For the second time within a week, Councilman Richard Furstenau was involved in a judge's ruling. This time, it was in his favor. In a case of landlord vs. tenant, DuPage County Judge William I. Ferguson ruled in favor of D'oro Suite, a Naperville extended stay apartment complex owned by Furstenau and his brother. D'oro filed suit against former tenants Marius and Marsha Vertan for failure to pay rent after signing a one-month lease for August 2008.
Settlement talks between Councilman Richard Furstenau and the city of Naperville appear to have broken down, with both sides filing motions this week to enforce different versions of the settlement agreements.
