Federal subpoena targets Jackson, MS, $89.8M Siemens settlement spending. See who was named
Federal authorities have subpoenaed a sweeping set of financial records from the City of Jackson and key parties tied to its 2020 settlement with Siemens Industry, Inc., demanding details on how the city spent or managed the nearly $90 million settlement after the failed water meter and billing system overhaul. The subpoena, filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, is part of two federal lawsuits against the city — one over years of raw sewage overflows into Jackson neighborhoods, and another filed after the 2022 drinking water crisis that left residents without running water for days. Together, the lawsuits accuse the city of failing to maintain its sewer and water systems in violation of federal environmental laws. Both cases are being overseen by U.S. District Judge Henry Wingate, who appointed Ted Henifin in 2022 to manage Jackson's failing water and sewer systems. Henifin later established JXN Water to operate the utilities under federal oversight. During a public hearing in June on another proposed rate increase for Jackson residents, Wingate shifted focus to the Siemens settlement, asking Henifin where the money went. Henifin told Wingate that about 33% of the settlement — slightly over $29 million — went to the attorneys representing the city. That left around $60 million for Jackson's use. Henifin also said he believed some of it was used to pay overdue water and sewer bills, but the rest couldn't be accounted for. Wingate then directed him to investigate. With Wednesday's subpoenas, it seems that investigation has begun. The four-page court order directs 10 parties — including the city's legal department, Department of Public Works, the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality and Henifin himself — to turn over all documentation related to the Siemens settlement by early August. It comes only nine days into Jackson Mayor John Horhn's first term in office. Horhn could not be immediately reached for comment. Specifically, the U.S. Department of Justice and Environmental Protection Agency are seeking bank statements, disbursement logs, wire transfer records, internal memos and other documents that detail how Jackson received, allocated and spent the $89.8 million it recouped in February 2020. The settlement ended a years-long battle with Siemens, a multinational engineering and technology giant, over a $90 million contract the city awarded in 2013 to modernize its water billing system. But the project ultimately collapsed and left thousands of Jacksonians with faulty meters and inaccurate bills. The contract, dispute and settlement all took place during former Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba's administration. Lumumba is not named in the subpoena. Wednesday's subpoena suggests the federal government is examining whether any of those settlement funds were misused or improperly reported. According to the order, officials are particularly interested in whether the city used the money for debt repayment, infrastructure repairs, capital projects or any other financial obligations. The order commands production of any documents 'relating to the approximately $89.8 million settlement between the City of Jackson, Mississippi, and Siemens Industry, Inc.,' and notes that recipients must provide any records in their 'possession, custody, or control, or otherwise accessible.' "Judge Wingate's recent request for information relates to the $89.8 million settlement between the City of Jackson and Siemens Industry, Inc," JXN Water spokesperson Aisha Carson said in an email statement Thursday. "That settlement was managed by the City, and JXN Water was not a party to the lawsuit or the resulting funds. We understand Judge Wingate has asked for additional documentation, but this matter falls under the jurisdiction of the City of Jackson." Ted Henifin, JXN Water's federally appointed manager The City of Jackson's legal department and public works division The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality The EPA's Region 4 office The U.S. Department of Justice Environmental and Natural Resources Division The subpoena was also sent to several law firms that represented the city during the Siemens litigation Lightfoot, Franklin & White LLC (Birmingham, AL) Winston J. Thompson III & Associates, PLLC (Jackson, MS) Barry W. Howard, Esq. (Jackson, MS) Ice Miller LLP (Chicago, IL) The city's lawsuit against Siemens alleged the company and its subcontractors failed to deliver a working water billing system, installed meters that often didn't register water usage and left the city with uncollectable accounts and massive financial shortfalls. Siemens, which denied wrongdoing, agreed to the 2020 settlement to resolve the matter. At the time, city officials said the recouped funds would help stabilize Jackson's water finances. The subpoena gives recipients 30 days to produce the documents. If the city or other parties fail to comply, they could face sanctions or further court orders compelling the release of records. The move marks the latest turn in Jackson's ongoing reckoning with its water crisis.
