A moldy, costly mess
The Housing Authority's defense began to crumble in April 2007, after 10 months of litigation. Old evidence resurfaced from the 1994 lawsuit over unfinished work at Eagle's Watch. Cochran and his legal team jumped all over it, demanding hundreds of pages of records related to the case. Housing Authority attorneys resisted – they said the request was unreasonable. They provided some documents but not all at first. The rest were protected by attorney-client privilege, they argued. The standoff lasted four months. The agency lost the disclosure battle in early August 2007, and agreed to settle a week later. Hull said the Housing Authority's attorneys guided the don't-give-in legal strategy. Agency leaders felt they had to fight, she said – otherwise, the payout might have been greater.
Coming of age
Precisely where his tomb will lie, Nguyen does not know. He has no burial plot in hand. "No money," Nguyen says in distinct English. But he wants it to be in a place that's as comfortable as a Buddhist flower garden, so that the presiding monk can feel totally at ease when he comes to Nguyen's grave and, abiding by tradition, sets his spirit free with powerful chants. With remains now dispersed among different graveyards, from the city to the suburbs, an informal group representing more than 300 Vietnamese elders like Nguyen is hoping to establish its own central burial ground in Boston, one with a price its members can squeeze into their strained budgets. For now, they have found no place to rest. Distress over future digs can weigh heavier on Vietnamese seniors, who are part of a culture that honors its forebears with religious or communal rites at the burial site.
