Republican Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen filed a lawsuit on Thursday against a nonprofit organization of state prosecutors following allegations the organization has been mismanaging public funds.
Knudsen’s lawsuit (pdf), filed in Montana district court, targets the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG). NAAG is funded through taxpayer dollars paid by member states and the organization manages those funds, loans those funds to states to finance their legal battles, and invests those funds.
