ROCKVILLE, Md. — The legal fight between the $295 million Lafayette Federal Credit Union and its former CEO and his son may take even longer to resolve after the Judge in the case appointed an outside party to referee ongoing disputes about discovery.
Lawyers for the credit union, William Brooks and William Brooks Jr. have been struggling over jurisdiction, scheduling and confidentiality issues regarding depositions in the case.

Lawyers for the Brooks have not yet commented on the court's decision.
