The full contract signed between Pigott and MDHS is shown below. The contract states that Pigott was to coordinate his work with MDHS counsel and the Attorney General’s office, consulting with them on specific courses of action. As stated by MDHS on Saturday, on at least one occasion, Pigott made decisions about the litigation and filed pleadings without any prior dialogue with officials at MDHS. MDHS Executive Director Bob Anderson told Y’all Politics that Pigott has been instructed to submit for final payment. The change in attorneys, MDHS noted, does not indicate any change in the commitment of MDHS to recover the welfare funds for taxpayers.
