Boston City Council pleads Guilty to the remaining counts in McCrea v. Flaherty

We received a motion for Summary Judgment today from the
Boston City Council in which they plead guilty to the 10
remaining counts of the McCrea v. Flaherty and Boston City
Council case.
They were previously found guilty by the Superior Court on 11
Counts.
The City Council appealed that decision to the Appeals Court
where they argued that they weren't given enough chance to
present factual evidence.
The appeals court found them guilty on 1 count and remanded the
other 10 back to the Superior Court.
Now, 6 months later under a court deadline they have refused to
turn over any further factual evidence, and have just moved for
the Court to find them in violation for the remaining 10 Counts
of illegally meeting with the BRA and others in violation of
the Open Meeting Law.
They have spent somewhere between $100,000 and $200,000
plus on this, and the clock is still ticking with their outside
lawyers.
A transcription of some of the PDF they sent is here:
Defendants Motion for Summary Judgment

Council,hereby move the court to enter judgment as follows:
