Former La Puente Community Services Director Rozanne Adanto has filed a lawsuit against the city of La Puente and former City Manager Carol Cowley, claiming wrongful termination, according to court records.

I’m still trying to get a copy of the lawsuit, so I don’t know much except that the next hearing is in December.

Adanto parted ways with the city sometime in 2007. Ted Bistarkey has since assumed her role.

Cowley retired Sept. 30. Former Rosemead City Manager Frank Tripepi is serving as an interim.

Adanto filed her complaint on Sept. 24.

Between this and the theft of $500,000 in tow fees allegedly by a former Industry sheriff’s sergeant, looks like Tripepi really has his hands full.

More to come when I know it.
