Suit Aims To Delay Building of Stockton Prison Hospital
On Tuesday, the Stockton Greater Chamber of Commerce, the city of Stockton and San Joaquin County filed a lawsuit seeking to block construction of a new prison medical facility near Stockton until state officials address their concerns about increased traffic, poor air quality and other issues. The new facility is intended to help address quality problems in the prison health care system.
