Comment: This article is somewhere between deceptive and fraudulent.
1)The first step in suing the state or any other entity is the FILING of the COMPLAINT and SERVING the defendant the COMPLAINT.  The state says they have not been served the complaint.  Therefore at this time no complaint has been filed.
The truth is, at best, is that the plaintiff is PREPARING to sue the state and I hardly find this to be any way news worthy!  Seriously WTF?
