• One law firm represents over half of Stanislaus County's cities. Are people concerned? (modbee.com) — Patterson is scrutinizing its longtime law firm after legal bills soared well beyond the city’s budget and residents raised concerns about overcharging and conflicts of interest. City leaders have ordered a feasibility study on replacing White Brenner with in‑house counsel, while the firm defends its billing practices and says growth and litigation, not overbilling, are driving costs.
   

• Court hearing delayed for man shot 7 times by ICE agents in Patterson. Here's why (sacbee.com) — A federal criminal case tied to an April 7 shooting by immigration agents in Patterson has been delayed while the defense waits for FBI forensic results on the car involved.

Patterson residents may see continued federal investigative activity around the incident scene.
